teams365 #3834: Friday Flashback – Coaching for Creativity - TEAMS365 #2031 - CREATIVITY IN THE WORKPLACE: SIX QUESTIONS TO REFLECT ON

​As part of the summer series this month, today’s blog post shifts to a focus on creativity. As we unwind from the busy pace of the rest of the year, we may find that our creative juices start to flow. It’s often said that we need space and time to get our creative spirit awakened.

Creativity can take many forms and it can also be incorporated to our every day experience. Today’s post is an invitation for you to consider what creativity means for you, when it occurs and what it can look like more fully in your work.
