CREATIVITY WORKSHOP
Description
The purpose of this workshop is to make participants aware of creativity techniques. These creativity techniques are intended to encourage ideation and above all, to evaluate each of our ideas produced as being creative or not.
This workshop consists of a theoretical part and a practical part. In the theoretical part, I am inspired by creativity evaluation techniques used in research (psychology, cognitive neurosciences). I also use techniques applicable in equally effective companies. Almost every technique is followed by small practical exercises. In order to consolidate everything, group exercises allow you to understand all the techniques in a good mood.
What to expect
- Discover a set of creativity techniques
- A serious and scientific approach to creativity
- At the end of the session, be able to self-evaluate on the ideas that we produce
- Have a good time (++ team building)
what not to expect
- Do not participate during the workshop (so expect to use your brain and communicate!)

WHAT YOU EARN
INNOVATION
A more creative mind produces more innovative ideas.
PRODUCTIVITY
Effective methods to be more productive in meetings.
TEAM BUILDING

Why this workshop and not another ?
It's a workshop that brings together good humor and learning! You will not only discover methods that can be applied daily to your work, but you will get to know your colleagues better to improve your future teamwork. In addition to the serious support that is offered (real techniques and in-depth research), it is an interactive moment where you will come out inspired and enlightened on the subject of creativity.
My strengths
Scientific approach
M y studies in neurosciences and my field experience on creativity (Brain Institute) provide a scientific approach to creativity. At each workshop, I explain not only the techniques used, but also the creative process in neuroscience. The content of my workshops is verified by research articles and is continuously updated.
Theory & Practice
I alternate theory and practice so as to have a playful and instructive approach. The theory comes from research articles and psychological definitions. The practice is inspired by real laboratory tests.
Fun & Cohesive
Each workshop is designed to discover the personalities of each and to work on group cohesion. In my workshops, we forget the hierarchy and the roles of each to express ourselves in joy and good humor!
Everything for learning
As a neuroscientist, I attach particular importance to learning. However, learning requires memory and validation. Thus, it is through numerous repetitions and group work that I inculcate the methods of creativity.
