Innovative Spaces
 Traditionally, when business has wanted to be more innovative and more productive they spend money on equipment and technology. This belies the fact that innovation is a social phenomenon. All ideas start with an individual and they live or die when they are shared with other people. Technology can only be a support player in this process. The ‘Innovative Spaces’ program deals with innovation as a people issue and looks at what your teams need to be more creative and innovative.
Key questions include:
 How can I trust the group with my idea?
What is conversational action?
What type of conversation is best suited to being creative?
What actions in my conversations can make us more creative (and more productive)?
Does the mood of our team support being creative or not?
How does our listening effect being creative?
