Effective problem solving requires more than off-the-shelf approaches and “how to” processes. People look to their leaders to think and act creatively when faced with complex problems and critical issues. Creative thinking – like analytical, strategic, and other types of thought – can be learned and nurtured. Through discussion, class projects, and exercises, students identify and overcome obstacles to creative thinking, cultivate their own creative thought process, and learn how to encourage creative thinking in others.
