Creativity and Innovation

Module overview:

What stops us being our most creative selves? Understanding how the elements of our personal workflow add to or detract from our creativity is a vital step to knowing how to better our creative processes. In this session we’ll cover the ‘Yes, and’ improvisation technique, effective writing techniques, and how to draw on movement exercises to improve your pitching and presentations capabilities.
