By recognizing and leveraging our creative strengths, workplace challenges can be addressed to stay competitive in a dynamic economy. The talk also provides an introductory overview of the critical creativity skills business leaders and employees need to thrive and how strategic partnerships with educational institutions can better prepare the next generation for a changing workforce. We can build a more resilient workforce ready to meet future demands through creativity and innovation."
