TRAINER ACCREDITATION: Lateral Thinking™

Introduction

Lateral Thinking & Serious Creativity
In an increasingly competitive world, traditional methods of problem solving can only take you so far. You need to go beyond problem solving; you need the ability to generate new concepts and new ways of doing things. Indeed, you must learn to do so on demand, instead of just hoping you'll somehow stumble on an innovative idea. Lateral Thinking is a systematic approach in which you use deliberate techniques to enable creativity for competitive advantage.

Workshop Overview

Trainer Accreditation
By far the most cost effective method for guaranteeing the implementation of the de Bono tools throughout an organisation is to train your own corporate trainers. Then you can deliver de Bono's Thinking Tools to as many staff as appropriate.

After this initial Accreditation Workshop, the trainer simply orders workbooks from Indigo on a volume discount basis. In addition to this, the trainer receives constant updates about developments from the international trainer network that de Bono has created.

Workshop Benefits

Workbook Discount
Each accredited trainer is required to buy licensed materials and workbooks on completion of their accreditation.

To support & encourage the introduction of the Lateral Thinking system, Indigo offer cumulative discounts for the purchase of licensed materials and workbooks. Discounts are calculated per company, so when more than one trainer is trained, they all contribute to one company discount scheme.

Workshop Objectives

Dr Edward de Bono's Lateral Thinking will equip you with solid practical methods for challenging current thinking.

You'll find out how to harness your own creativity so that it can work for you, when you need it, for competitive advantage.

You'll learn to solve problems and generate new ideas to meet the challenges of the modern business environment.

You'll leave the seminar with skills that you have practised and can apply immediately on return to work.
