Generating Innovative Ideas to Achieve Your Goals
Sprout Sweater Episode 26 : Getting out of your own rigid thinking and getting creative
Join Dave Algeo aboard "Sprout 1" and take another journey into your inner world where mind, meaning and metaphor collide.
In this episode, Dave is joined by Dave Hall, Founder of the Ideas Centre after discovering a passion for creativity and innovation. Dave has a proven leadership track record at Board level in a range of sectors (both private and public). The core rationale for the offering is as follows: the world is changing at an ever-increasing pace, but the decisions we make and the behaviours that we display are based on models of “reality” derived from our understanding inevitably outdated patterns from the past. We MUST find ways of challenging these patterns, to free up our thinking, to generate fresh and novel (i.e. creative) ideas that then feed innovation. For the 10 years prior to The Ideas Centre, Dave was CEO of HFL Sport Science Ltd, a drug surveillance and contract research organisation based in Newmarket. More generally, since 1984 he has worked in a range of manufacturing, service and technology transfer organisations, holding positions in engineering, marketing and manufacturing management. Creativity, innovation, and a pursuit of the perfect culture provide a common thread throughout his career to date.
