Creativity is an essential part not only of resilience but of the CCT Method itself. In today’s data-driven world, creatives can feel a bit out of place because the creative process (can be) messy. In this episode, I explore what creativity is and why it's an essential part of the future of work. In a world where a single iota can throw off your entire bloc of code; creativity often involves breaking norms and ignoring rules and expectations to arrive at innovative solutions. In this episode, Lorenzo and I discuss what creativity is, why it’s important, where to find it, and whether we’re born with it or it can be learned across the lifespan.
