Higher education leaders and faculty often face complex challenges that require innovative and collaborative solutions. Whether addressing curriculum changes, institutional priorities, or team-based challenges, effective problem-solving requires both structure and creativity.
Designing Creative Solutions for Your Toughest Challenges introduces a practical framework for generating and implementing creative ideas within teams. The course presents a three-step approach that helps participants define problems clearly, facilitate idea generation, and determine how to move forward with the most effective solutions.
Participants learn how to identify which challenges benefit from structured creative processes, engage the right stakeholders, and create an environment that encourages trust, collaboration, and open idea sharing. The course also explores how to manage differences in perspectives, balance risk tolerance, and support teams through the transition from brainstorming to implementation.
By focusing on both process and team dynamics, this resource helps faculty and leaders strengthen their ability to navigate complex problems and foster innovation within their departments or institutions.
