Forum Kiedrich: Seminar on Creativity Techniques

 
Today I attended another instructive seminar, hosted by Forum Kiedrich: Creativity Techniques taught by Prof. Dr. Horst Geschka.
 
Though most of the participants were already familiar with the concepts of brainstorming etc., it was nevertheless interesting to have the chance to compare the suitability of several "techniques" on different real world (from the participants’ companies) case studies side-by-side and therefore to learn which method to use on which occasion.
 

Additional Insight:  The traditionally reserved and tidy-minded locals clearly prefer the less emotionally loaded ‘writing’ methods over the more vibrant concepts, that live by their goup dynamics.
 

In spite of that, I personally always used to prefer the productivity of that typical creative chaos during brainstormings.
 

Deutsche Version
 

Heute war ich erneut zu einem Seminar von Forum Kiedrich eingeladen: Kreativitätstechniken von und mit Prof. Dr. Horst Geschka. Besonders interessant fand ich dabei die Gelegenheit verschiedene Techniken des Ideensammelns rund um Brainstorming und Brainwriting an ähnliche Aufgabenstellungen auszuprobieren und folglich vergleichen zu können, welche Methode sich wofür eignet.
 
Zusätzliche Erkenntnis :  Der eher zurückhaltenden Art Mensch in hiesigen Breiten scheinen weniger emotionsgeladene Ansätze zur Ideenfindung (also eher die „Writing”-Methoden) in der Regel mehr zu behagen, als das traditionelle, von der Gruppendynamik lebende, Brainstorming. Schade. Denn ich finde eigentlich gerade das kreative Durcheinander immer sehr inspirierend.
