The Course in Creativity combines and integrates two of Dr. Edward de Bono's powerful thinking programs; the program in parallel thinking, Six Thinking Hats; and the program for innovation and creativity, Lateral Thinking. This program can be designed in a special executive, limited group size format for on-site delivery; one full day, and five half days, spread over a period of several weeks to strengthen your learning experience. You not only learn to effectively use Dr. de Bono's powerful methods, but also will employ them to focus on live and relevant business issues. These thinking methods are like 'software for the mind', and the applications are endless for individual, team and organizational use.

The Course for Creativity is now available in a two or three day format and is available in our public or in-house format.
