Inside the project
Focus
How can creativity move from an individual talent to an organizational capacity?
The Türkiye Bankalar Birliği project focused on addressing a training need through creative thinking practices. Participants worked within their own product and business contexts.
Creativity is not an innate trait but a way of working that grows under the right conditions. This project focused on establishing those conditions.
The bottleneck for creativity in organizations was usually not a lack of ideas but the absence of a working environment where ideas could be protected and developed.
Scope
We worked with the organization's teams on technical creative thinking and idea generation aligned with strategic goals. We used creativity methods during the training.
Implementation
HOW WERE CREATIVE TECHNIQUES USED IN THIS PROJECT?
We used creativity techniques not as showmanship but as tools teams tested on their own problems. Each technique was applied to a real product or process problem.
What brings creativity into an organization is not individual talent but a working environment where ideas can emerge safely.
