When making decisions, the only way to ensure all voices are heard is to provide everyone with the opportunity to speak AND be heard. To achieve this, facilitators rely on the dynamic balance between divergent thinking to generate ideas and convergent thinking to make selections from among the ideas generated. In doing so, no one dominates, informed decisions are made faster and better, and stakeholders feel fully engaged. In this session, participants will learn and practice highly effective tools from the Creative Problem Solving process to solicit stakeholder engagement and secure buy in from project inception through completion. Best part, participants can apply their new learning immediately!
