Rocket Fuel: Unleashing the Collective Imagination of Your Organization

We are in the midst of an acute creativity crisis. A survey of 100,000 people by ...

We are in the midst of an acute creativity crisis. A survey of 100,000 people by interesting.org found that 98% believe creativity is important for their work, yet only 45% consider themselves creative and a mere 2% think that their place of work fosters creativity. The challenge is formidable.

The good news, says Gabor George Burt, is that creativity is an immensely powerful, abundant and completely free resource we all possess. However, it is vastly underutilized by both individuals and organizations. Through his engaging, interactive talks and workshops, you will learn to activate and channel creative thinking as a key driver of your organization’s growth and success. You will gain the tools to:

  • Link systematic creativity with smart strategy
  • Achieve strong customer loyalty, expanded relevance and sustained growth
  • Align your organization around the pursuit of creative transformation
  • Maximize the engagement and intellectual contribution of your workforce

Future-shaping companies know that satisfying clients and customers is no longer enough. You have to delight them through every part of their experience with you. But there is an approach to servicing your customers that is even more powerful than delight. One that enables you to continuously renew and broaden your offering and remain indispensable. That approach is customer infatuation. From this session, you will learn to:

  • Turn your customer ‘Pain Points’ into ‘Points of Infatuation’, thereby transforming the weakest part of their experience with you into the strongest
  • Use this transformation process to create an ongoing cycle of ‘Infatuation Intervals’, giving you a golden platform to continuously refresh your offering and stay indispensable to your customers
  • Apply the “Innovation Shortcut” to elicit customer infatuation: Instead of outright invention, simply combine already existing components in powerful, new ways to create new customer value
  • Adopt a strategy of strong growth by always stretching the boundaries of how your define your value proposition
