If there’s one belief that is holding you back from getting the most out of your team, it’s this one: some people are creative, and some people aren’t.

That belief is based on outdated ideas about what creativity means, where it comes from, and who gets to harness it.

The truth is, creativity is a skill like any other: it can be learned.

In the same way that we teach employees how to track expenses, process invoices, and jiggle the lock just right to get into the supply closet, we can teach them how to be more creative, how to have better ideas, and how to build a culture where innovation is a natural byproduct.

Objectives:
In this talk, Kyle will:

• Inspire audience members to harness their own capacity for creativity and innovation.
• Give practical tips for how to get more (and better!) ideas out of yourself and your team)
• Share the 5 things that every idea needs
• Help you avoid common idea-killers in your organization.

Using KPIs and forecasting to isolate healthy areas and problem areas, look at different scenarios, and plan out cash flow. Why it’s important for growing businesses, and why you can’t wait to look at actual results to be successful.
