  • Taking the time to explore and play…

    Most organisations want to solve problems and generate new ideas as quickly and effectively as possible. However, counter-intuitively to some people, slowing down and taking the time to really explore and play with issues and ideas can allow the best solutions to be generated. The repercussions of rushed and ill-conceived concepts can in fact slow the business down, whereas considered quality solutions can ultimately allow the business to move at pace and succeed. #goslowtogofast

  • A thought for Monday morning – ‘Don’t make a To-Do LIST, make a To-Do DOODLE’…

    Why not start your working week by ditching the ‘To-Do List’ and unleashing your creative side by drawing a ‘To-Do Doodle‘ on a blank piece of A4 (or bigger) paper.

    You will find that using this approach can help you see things differently, generate new ideas and identify linkages between different tasks that would not have easily been spotted using the traditional linear text-based ‘to-do list’ approach.

    Just start drawing as thoughts come into your head. There’s no right or wrong way to do this. Don’t worry if it’s messy or you have to cross things out and draw them again – it’s all part of the visual and creative process!

    Please let Crackerjack know how this visual technique works for you this week?

    Thanks!
