Innovative Workplaces: Subsidised Training
Mar 03
IVE Hothouse Training has teamed up with West Yorkshire Consortium of Colleges (WYCC) to deliver Innovative Workplaces Training at a reduced rate, supporting economic growth in the North. The training is a blended learning programme for individuals and business cohorts, using a mix of eLearning, interactive virtual training, and coaching.
IVE believe that, in uncertain times, success relies on businesses’ ability to drive innovation and recognise change as an opportunity. According to the World Economic Forum the 3 skills that will be in most demand by 2022 will be Complex Problem Solving, Critical Thinking, and Creativity.
“At IVE we know that creativity drives innovation. To have an innovative workplace you need to have creative leadership.”
- Drew Rowlands, Deputy Chief Executive, IVE
Innovative Workplaces
Businesses face many barriers to adopting the business practices needed to navigate an uncertain world with resilience. This poses a challenge to economic growth and prosperity for the region. To recognise the importance of creativity and be able to nurture it in the workplace is a core leadership skill. The blended programme is at times highly immersive and personally challenging and unlike any other training programme currently available in the area.
As a result of this training participants are able to;
- Harness innovation and transformation to overcome challenges
- Solve complex problems through divergent and convergent thinking in wide-ranging contexts
- Learn how to build and sustain the environment for innovation, creativity and reflective thinking
- Grow resilience through applying creativity under pressure
- Understand how different team approaches can be applied to problem-solving, teamwork and collaboration
- Empower themselves and those around them to take calculated risks
- Establish an innovative culture for business productivity and growth
IVE has a 23 year track record of researching the application of creativity in many different workplace training contexts.
