  • Overview

    The aim of the creativity training video

    To dispel the belief that fast decision-making is best and to show the importance of allowing the unconscious thinking process time and space to flourish.


    Help harness the power of unconscious thinking

    In this lecture John Cleese challenges the basis of the decision-making processes prevalent in most of today's organisations. Cleese proposes that there is a pressing need to harness the power of unconscious thinking. Allow the 'tortoise mind' to overtake the 'hare brain' and more fresh and unusual ideas will be the result.
