About This Webinar
Organisations are facing a growing capability gap. Graduates are more educated than ever, yet businesses report rising challenges around creativity, collaboration, judgement and adaptability. Why?

In this conversation, psychologist and author Dr Eugene Hughes sits down with Professor Jonathan Fineberg, founder of the world’s only PhD in Creativity, to explore the systemic roots of the skills mismatch between education and modern work. Together they examine why training for “skills” has replaced teaching people how to think; why creativity is misunderstood and undervalued and how organisations must redesign if they want creativity to move from the margins to the centre of performance.

This is the first in a series of conversations exploring the ideas behind Eugene's book, The Creative Enterprise.
Agenda
  • Why the global skills gap is really a thinking gap
  • Creativity beyond brainstorms: judgement, synthesis and intent
  • What needs to change in both education and organisations to cultivate human capability
