Why Springkite is so useful
IBM’s global study on 1500 CEO’s in 66 countries and 30 industries, in its 2010 and 2012 editions, concludes that Creativity is the most crucial factor for future success. The 2012 edition also emphasizes that the four traits that stand out as critical for employees’ future success are: Collaborative, Communicative, Creative and Flexible.
(An ideami White Paper summarizing the connection between the IBM study, largest of its kind ever undertaken, and this workshop, is available on request).
Springkite focuses on those traits and skills that the Global IBM study, largest of its kind, considers most important for today’s businesses. Based on years of research and the unique multidisciplinary experience of Ideami, SK is especially designed to stimulate and reinforce creative thinking, thus enhancing our overall productivity, energy and balance. An ideal boost for all types of entrepreneurs, employees, managers and businesses.
SK is a unique workshop among its kind because
The conclussions of IBM’s global study are clear and match with ideami’s work and research. In today’s society and markets, analysis is an incomplete and limited way to deal with the complexity of business and life. Springkite is designed to balance analytical and creative thinking in order to take our productivity and innovation potential to the next level. You will be working on Communication, creative thinking, flexibility and improvisation, observation and collaboration, lateral thinking, expressiveness, team work and much more.
Springkite (SK) goes way beyond language to help you exercise creative thinking with all your potential, working with multiple creative channels, involving words, sounds, visuals, movement, gesture, emotions, context and more, empowering the creative skills of employees and managers and giving you new strategies to create and incubate novel and useful ideas connected to your current work. The Full Springkite is structured in 7 modules: Insight, Visual, Gesture, Pattern, Emotion, Context and Meditation. Together they provide a formidable training in creative thinking skills to complement your existing analytical ones.
It is very practical, in SK you will work on real business challenges related to your needs in order to produce useful results. Or you may choose to work on brand new challenges.
