Creating Confidence with Heather Monahan Confidence Classic: The Method to Solve Any Problem Fast with Jeremy Utley
Have you ever felt stuck trying to come up with a great idea, and the harder you think, the worse it gets? In this episode, I sit down with Jeremy Utley, Director of Executive Education at Stanford d.school, to break down the science of creativity and why breakthrough thinking isn’t reserved for “creative people.” Jeremy explains why the best innovators, such as Steve Jobs & Benjamin Franklin, focus less on finding the perfect idea and more on generating a higher volume of ideas. We talk about how creativity really works, why bad ideas are actually the gateway to great ones, and how changing your inputs can unlock entirely new solutions. Tune in to learn how to unlock your creativity, generate better ideas, and start creating breakthroughs on demand.
