Speaking

An unexpected benefit of being an author is the privilege of being asked to speak to organisations in person or online. Using digital tools and slide presentations, punctuated by short interactive exercises, I explain key techniques needed to achieve innovative creative solutions. I tailor my talks to suit the occasion and company.

Have you ever desperately needed to come up with an idea but suffered from creative block, and sat staring at a blank sheet of paper? Tried to think up ideas to solve a problem but the flash of inspiration never came? Ever needed to come up with a difficult business solution, new product, service, or persuade your team to collaborate better?



My talks explain all the practical methods you can use to solve problems. A simple series of processes can generate, evaluate and implement ideas – whenever they are needed. Creativity is not mysterious but practical and down-to-earth and can be applied to improve any organisation in any field.
