PM Tools & Techniques: Facilitate Creative Solutions

Projects come with problems. Now more than ever, the problems that project managers encounter demand that they be creative. High-performing project managers convert problems into challenges then skillfully generate, develop, and implement novel solutions to solve those problems.

In this interactive training, you will learn the Creative Problem Solving (CPS) process and how to apply it to solve problems you encounter in your project, program, and portfolio management work.

Project managers who consistently deliver on time, within budget, and to the desired scope solve problems differently. These project managers excel in their ability to draw from the capacity of their teams, stakeholders, and themselves to be deliberately creative.

In this training, you will gain the skills to ignite creativity at will instead of waiting for ideas to happen. This training is based on the seminal work of Alex Osborn, the inventor of brainstorming, and Sidney Parnes, the developer of the Creative Problem Solving (CPS) process. As a result of the training, you will become savvy enough to assess any challenge or opportunity and apply the most dependable creativity tools to best resolve the project challenges they encounter.
