Courses at the same or a lower level don't give credit against each other. A Focus course or above always costs at least £15. Read the full terms

About this course

Overview and Outcomes.

Overview

Creativity and innovation are often used as if they meant the same thing, and that confusion leads organisations to run another ideas workshop when the real gap is implementation. This module separates creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship, drawing on Levitt, Guilford, Amabile, Csikszentmihalyi and Torrance, contrasts evolutionary and revolutionary innovation, tackles five common myths, and closes with Pixar's Braintrust.

What you'll develop

In this Bitesize, you will develop the ability to:

  1. Distinguish creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship, and diagnose whether a stalled idea in your organisation reflects a creativity gap or an innovation gap.
  2. Explain the core theories of where creativity comes from, including divergent and convergent thinking, Amabile's three components, Csikszentmihalyi's systems model and flow, and Torrance's four measures.
  3. Compare evolutionary and revolutionary innovation, challenge five common myths about innovation, and describe how Pixar's Braintrust builds creativity as a team discipline.
