Florida Creativity Conference 2025

There is a great deal of talk about keeping emotions out of the work place and being rational and concrete in solving problems on the job. But, In this session we are going to examine science and experiences that help us understand and apply our emotional brain to the process of problem solving and creativity. We share a simple but provocative model of how emotions and intellect work together to create the best possible creative results, and how to recognize and leverage that aspect of our brain's core function.

Key Takeaways:
