May 2019 Monthly Dinner Meeting in Thousand Oaks

Join us Thursday, May 23rd, for a Dinner Meeting in Thousand Oaks Topic: Integrate Creativity and Play to Transform Business Performance Creativity is the root of all innovation. It is also innate in each and every one of us. By empowering creativity to think critically, problem solve and strategize, people and teams can be most effective. Companies have historically used creativity as a break from work, for team building or improving morale. This interactive workshop will give you tools to start incorporating creativity into the work you do to have a direct impact on project outcomes. In addition, you will have the chance to experience how creativity is good for business through LEGO® Serious Play® methods and creative problem-solving tools.
