A one-day workshop on creative problem solving along with a certification programme will be held on Friday June 13 in Bangalore. It will cover tools of idea generation and short-listing, creating a culture of innovation in teams, building an ‘Idea Factory,’ and sharpening personal creativity.

Innovation and creativity are increasingly understood as the imperatives of organizational growth and personal excellence. These skills can be honed in a systematic and disciplined fashion and a range of tools and techniques exist for creative problem solving. Successful organizations treat innovation as not just an art, but a science too, and hence creativity and innovation can well be ‘taught’.
