In today's flatter, down-sized corporate structures, getting the most out of every mind at every level of your organization is vital to your success. Mind Farming™ helps managers identify and develop creative thinking and problem solving skills in the people they manage.

Virtually everyone in business faces the need to come up with ideas and solve problems in the course of doing their jobs. While our Do-It-Yourself Lobotomy™ focuses on giving people the understanding and tools to generate more, bigger, better ideas with greater consistency, Mind Farming gives managers the understanding and tools to leverage the thinking talents of their people to better serve their specific job responsibilities, as well as the overall corporate needs.

First we'll help participants identify the four basic "creative personality" types that virtually all people in business function within: Laborers, Crafters,

 

Rationals and Dreamers. Which personality types need the most supervision? Most encouragement? Which types perform best given more freedom? Which respond best to challenge?

We'll look at what prevents people from growing "creatively" in your organization. What limits their ability to contribute? How can supervisors manage for greater creativity and resourcefulness?

We'll look at the traits of the highest-achieving creative problem solvers in business (with side trips into other professions - the arts, even sports) and we'll explore the proven techniques that can be used to make all players as potent as the best creative thinkers in their industries.

The Mind Farming module is most often an extension of our Do-It-Yourself Lobotomy, but also works well as a stand-alone program for middle and top management.
