Projects come with problems. Now more than ever, the problems that project managers encounter demand that they be creative in their responses. High performing project managers convert problems into challenges then skillfully generate, develop and implement novel solutions to solve those problems.
In this interactive session, participants will learn how to apply the Creative Problem Solving process to their project, program and portfolio management work.
Project managers who consistently deliver on time, within budget and to the desired scope solve problems differently. These project managers excel in their ability to draw from the capacity of their teams, stakeholders, and themselves to be deliberately creative. In this seminar, participants will learn skills to ignite creativity at will instead of waiting for ideas and solutions to happen.
This session is based on the seminal work of Alex Osborn, the inventor of Brainstorming, and Sidney Parnes, the developer of the Creative Problem Solving (CPS) process. As a result of this session, participants will become savvy enough to assess any challenge or opportunity and apply the most dependable creativity tools to best resolve the project challenges they encounter.
