Unpacking Curiosity: What It Is & How You Can Mobilize It For Greater Insight
Creativity. Agility. Problem solving.
All our highly desired attributes. And all have links to curiosity.
Research has shown that curious individuals demonstrate greater creativity, enhanced agility in changing environments, and more sophisticated problem solving.
Yet, findings from a recent global study indicated that companies are at risk of stagnation:
- While nearly two-thirds of employees said that curiosity was essential to discovering ideas, the same number of respondents said that their workplace puts up barriers to curiosity
- Plus, fewer than 25 percent described themselves as curious
In this participation-oriented session, we begin by unpacking the dimensions of curiosity (hint: it’s more than asking questions!). Plus, we ask why curiosity is becoming increasingly important in the age of increasing automation and digitization.
We will also explore a practical framework to encourage curiosity as an essential ingredient in your work and among your team.
Finally, we will play. We will look at exercises to boost curiosity and discover new ways of thinking that uncover previously-hidden possibilities.
Jump start your CRC experience with this fun and interactive session that will also liven up your workplace, your team, and yourselves.
