Veterinary professionals can attend an interactive workshop to celebrate World Creativity and Innovation Week, and learn different creativity techniques.
Organisers hope the session, which is being run on Wednesday 21 April at 12:30pm and again at 6pm, will help them develop innovative thinking within the practice team.
The date is the UN’s World Creativity and Innovation Day.
Each session will introduce a range of creative techniques that can be used to help spur innovation. Different breakout groups will then have problems to solve and will use the techniques to tackle them.
Sophie Rogers, RCVS ViVet manager, said: “These creativity techniques are a framework for approaching problems, but the key to developing solutions to everyday tasks and problems is learning how to foster and harness the whole team’s creative abilities.
“These workshops will provide the techniques to help you and your team overcome the common barriers to creativity, and gain the tools and mindsets needed to break existing patterns and ways of doing things, generate new ideas and improve creative self-leadership.”
The workshops will be hosted by:
They previously hosted the successful Design Thinking webinar for ViVet in December 2020.
Members of the veterinary team can sign up to the session, which will count towards their CPD requirement, via the ViVet website.
