As a manager, you spend a large part of your time playing the role of a “problem solver”. Do you find this exhausting? If this is the case, your daily activities will surely be simplified by an apparently trite observation: a lot of the problems that you encounter can actually be solved... by your team! And when you are short of ideas, your colleagues can have some really good ones! This is why you should be able to stimulate the creativity of your colleagues and involve them in solving problems that concern them. You will see that this initiative has several advantages: it encourages your team to be more involved, and solutions found collectively are often of a better quality and are more readily accepted than those coming from “higher up”. To help you in this approach, this programme provides you with a range of practical tools with immediate applicability for bringing out the creativity and enhancing the propositional skills, not only of your team but of groups in general, even large ones.
