With a PhD in creativity, I can support you to develop your creative thinking, processes and generation.

Team Creativity Consultancy Workshops

Want to boost your team’s creative productivity, or improve communication around creative ideas and solutions?

I support creatives to develop effective, empowering creative spaces. Through bespoke creative consultancy, I can support you with challenges such as:

  • Communication strategies for optimal collective/distributed creativity

  • Creating psychological safety around team “rejection” of creative ideas

  • Clearly defined creative roles within a team based on skills and qualities

  • Managing perfectionistic thinking, self-confidence and stress in creative process

  • Resilience around feedback from team/external stakeholders

  • Managing stress and time in creative processes

1-1 Creativity Coaching

Psychological coaching supports you to develop your resources and psychological flexibility to develop your creativity, confidence in sharing ideas, or time management in creative processes.

Our work will be a collaborative, solution focused approach which is driven by your goals and areas you identify for development. Through coaching I will help you to increase your self-insight, self-awareness and self-confidence.

All coaching is delivered in line with the Association for Coaching Global Code of Ethics for Coaches, Mentors and Supervisors.
