Michael Lee, a South African creativity trainer, coach, and author.He is also a Silicon Valley advisor, a TV screenwriter, and a film producer who has worked in Prague, Nigeria & South Africa.His training is called "innotivity" (creativity and Innovation) Michael believes that creativity is a trait that we are all inherently born with. The best way to start being creative is to go ahead and just be creative. Creativity is a muscle that has to be exercised so as to get it going. A simple way to practice is freewriting.Creativity is the process of confronting the problem and then solving the problem.in order to do that, you have to first think about the problem that's creativity, and then you have to take action that's innovation. Visit his website: www.innotidityinstitute.com. And read a rough transcript of our entire interview attached here.

During today’s episode, we are speaking to Bruce Honig.Bruce is the chief executive facilitator (CEF) of Honig IdeaGuides, which focuses on boosting leaders to facilitate meetings that are productive, engaging, and inspiring to teams both on- and off-site and virtually. With 24 years of experience, Bruce was the creativity guru way before it became a thing. He is a cultivated facilitator and trainer, author of a good number of books on creativity,  a creator of board and card games around the same topic, a workshop facilitator, as well as a featured speaker in the Playful Creative Summit.  Meeting up virtually in the sunny Bay Area, Bruce tells me how we can get out of our rut and into a more creative thinking process. Bruce has come up with 4 stages in the creativity process known as B.E.T.A. He compares these creative stages to an individual’s fingerprint. As an individual, you must be aware of what’s unique to you, what generic stage you’re in, and what kind of environment harnesses your creativity. For Bruce, that awareness of his creativity helps him and others he is working with.How does Bruce use BETA to unlock the creativity process?   B- Blocked; Be aware of any internal and external factors blocking your fate. Internal factors would be assumptions you have of the world.E- Exercise; The only way to be creative is to go right ahead and just be creative! Exercise being creative by doing something you haven’t done before.T - Tools; For ideation to occur you need tools for Brainstorming, Focusing, and Decision- making.A - Awareness; Be aware of your generic creativity. Just like a toddler, walking is something that they are inherently born with the knowledge to do. When it comes to facilitating a group, ensure you’re not the one coming up with the new ideas, but you are steering your team to generate these ideas. A good facilitator will ensure the team has all the materials needed, and all resources that are there, and instructions on how to do it. Group creativity sessions follow the BETA process but you move beyond focusing and defining the problem to exploring ideas and solutions together.Embracing technology using tools like the breakout rooms in zoom, Mural for collaboration, is key to facilitating virtually.Other resources mentioned in this episode:Bruce’s Idea guides websiteDownloadable tools and resourcesLinkedIn Bruce the CEF SummaryOverall. Bruce teaches us how to use the BETA steps in cultivating the creativity that is inherently within us and as a facilitator how to achieve the same results in a group setting, moving beyond ideation to problem-solving. Listen in to hear the full interview and hear what else Bruce has planned.

In today's episode, we talk with David Cummins, Ph.D. about overcoming blocks to our creativity.David says, "Since learning Rapid Resolution Therapy (RRT), helping people has become much more effective, quick, and significantly more fun for me and the people I have helped.  I appreciate RRT because I can help people move their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to where they want them -- without dragging them through the mud of the past. What I have found is that by helping the person get to an open relaxed state, their minds become much more responsive to moving in the direction the person wishes. Clients regularly report that the process was interesting, easy, and left them feeling lighter and clearer."He adds, "The process uses many painless techniques that naturally moves the person where they want to be going. What I find is that these shifts tend to be effortless and long-lasting because the changes are in the person’s best interest and it happens on multiple levels at the same time. RRT has shown to be effective in helping to clear depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief, guilt, and most other mental health issues."Feel free to contact David if you have any questions about the process. You may also visit the RRT website for more information.In addition, David says, "Because of the effectiveness of RRT online, I provide online therapy sessions for those who may need this service."
