“What would happen if…?” This question lies at the heart of creativity, experimentation, and discovery. To engage with the creative process you have to be willing to get curious, explore, show up for the work and take risks. Without risk and failure we often find ourselves standing still. This workshop will allow participants to shake up their working methods, gain insight, clarity and perspective to increase creativity and innovation.

Each workshop can be a stand-alone (one-hour workshop) or discounts are available for booking multiple sessions.


FAIL BETTER (1 hour)
“Ever tried, ever failed. No matter, fail again, fail better.” -Samuel Beckett

Sometimes referred to as “the other F word” failure is a thing we are taught to avoid at all costs, especially the more advanced we become in our careers and life. Ironically, allowing yourself the freedom to get outside our comfort zone, experiment, make mistakes, fail, and try again can help break through barriers and bring clarity, synergy, and innovation to our work and experience. This workshop guides participants through a series of creative exercises that can help reframe failure as a tool, a teacher and an asset.

Participants will leave the workshop with:
*Techniques and practices for embracing risk and failure
*Tips for courting creativity in your everyday life
*Your very own “failure resume” and lessons learned from it
