FREE IEEE-USA Livestream Webinar

Creativity is often considered the core of engineering because it is from creativity that we devise unique solutions to society’s challenges. LinkedIn’s Learning study ranked creativity #1 in its poll of critical job skills. Some engineers may feel, however, that they are not the “creative types.” As we’ll learn in this webinar there are many ways to enhance one’s innate creativity. Creativity is indeed within us all and simply needs activation to overcome a long held belief that we are otherwise. In this webinar, Sridhar Ramanathan takes a deeper look at creativity and how we might enhance this capability that is so critical to engineering. He will provide practical tips in areas such as cognitive flexibility, curiosity, visualization, imagination, and more.
