The five key skills of a co-creative leader
Co-creative leadership proposes the type of leadership required to create a working environment that results in increased collaboration, better communication, collective ownership and a focus on high quality results.
Co-creative leaders:
-
Identify, awaken and empower the dormant leaders in their organization
-
Are a voice among many when collaborating with their teams
-
Inspire and foster engagement rather than compliance
-
Embody and model the values they believe in both at home and at work
-
Are aware and take ownership of their personal impact on the people around them
-
Encourage teams to learn from their mistakes and through experimentation
This hands-on workshop will explore the five key skills of a co-creative leader and will allow you to experience them through simple games.
