Leverage your Creative ID profile
Creative ID™ is a psychometric assessment which shows how (rather than if!) you are creative. The tool is developed by Danish innovator, Hanne Kristiansen in partnership with Dr. Kamal Birdi and his team at the University of Sheffield (UK). Creative ID™ is born in business and backed by science (rather than the other way round), making it a powerful impact-focused framework that equips individuals with the self-awareness needed to tackle even the toughest of work challenges.

"The course was excellent. The sessions were very engaging and were executed very well. I found the breaking down of steps to assist with solving the problem really helpful. What seemed like an impossible task at the beginning feels much more manageable now."
Dawid de Villiers
Partner | Webber Wentzel in alliance with Linklaters.
"(The Creative Thinking Accelerator Programme) was a tremendously important and worthwhile endeavour. I derived a lot of benefit from it and I think our firm will do as well. A lot of effort had gone into trying to understand our business and the issues that we are facing, so it was really outcomes driven and you could see how the discipline and the learnings that you get from it can be applied in practice."
Abigail Hunt

"This was such a valuable, refreshing and highly practical course – always anchored to daily work priorities with space to work alone and in changing pairs. I appreciated being facilitated by experts Hanne, Nina Pearse and Celia Falkenberg and the inspiration that came from being in such a diverse group of legal professionals from across the globe. I loved the project component and valued my insightful learning partner."
Amy King

"I absolutely loved the programme. I have never experienced another course that was structured like this, and I really would love to attend more courses that are run like this.
My challenge was trying to get everyone in my team to step into thought leadership roles. I came up with a new approach during the course that has worked incredibly well. It feels like a complete win-win."
