Manage episode 389668810 series 3474393
What is creativity and how do we study it? If you’re curious to learn more about the study of creativity and innovation, this episode is for you.
My guest today is Dr. Robert Cleve, head of the Creativity, Innovation, and Leadership Specialization at Saybrook University. We talk about how Robert recently updated the curriculum to better address the complex problems we face as a global community. We also discuss everyday creativity, and how we can use our innate creativity not only to survive, but heal ourselves and to enrich our lives.
For our Creativity Pro-Tip today, think about how you utilize creativity in your everyday life, sometimes just to get through the day, and to make meaning of your experiences. Once we recognize and honor the ways we’re constantly using our creativity to navigate life, we can then direct our it toward healing, helping others, and maybe even changing the world for the better.
