TRANSKRYPT NAGRANIA
Coach: Hello, what can I help you with today?
Person: Hi, I was hoping to get some tips on how to be more creative. Recently, I felt overwhelmed with my assignments at work, and I feel like it is high time to do something about that issue.
Coach: Of course! I can help you by giving you some ideas. Being creative is a valuable skill that can help you in many aspects of life. Here are some tips that might help:
Firstly, keep an open mind. When you’re open-minded, you’re more likely to consider a wider range of possibilities, which can lead to more innovative and groundbreaking thinking. Additionally, having an open mind helps you to be more receptive to new information and stimuli, which can spark new insights and ideas.
Another thing is, to be willing to explore new concepts and perspectives and don’t be afraid to take risks. Creativity often involves thinking outside the box and coming up with new solutions to problems, which requires you to be open to new ways of thinking and not be afraid of trying something that may not have been done before.
What’s more, you should try to surround yourself with creative people. You can learn from their approaches and perspectives, and incorporate these into your creative process. Being part of a creative community can provide you with support and encouragement as well as feedback, which is necessary for you to grow.
You can also keep a journal. Writing down your thoughts and ideas can help you clarify and build on them.
And last but not least, take breaks and step away from your work. Sometimes a change of scenery or a different activity can lead to fresh ideas.
Person: That’s great, thanks!
Coach: No problem, if you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

CREATIVE OFFICE SPACE
Creative office space, czyli przestrzeń w biurze wyznaczona specjalnie, aby stymulować naszą kreatywność. Zainspiruj się tymi kilkoma wskazówkami i zmaksymalizuj swój potencjał.
NAGRANIE
- Create relax zones
Sometimes it is better to take a short break and completely zone out than sit in front of the screen staring at a blank page. Relax zones with hammocks, comfortable poufs, or quiet rooms could be a magnificent solution for the employees to take a break and refresh their minds.
- Make it bright and colorful
Nobody likes to sit in black-and-white surroundings. Try to add some color to the walls or objects around the office. You can also allow your co-workers to get creative and make their desks however they like.
- Reduce clutter and mess
A cluttered and messy environment can be overwhelming and make it difficult to think clearly. Whereas, having a clean and organized space can improve the mood and motivation of your employees, making them feel more confident and inspired.
- Make it easy to move things around
It allows employees to adapt to different projects, tasks, and working styles. Moving furniture and other objects creates a more ergonomic and functional space that is tailored to their needs.
- Hang a whiteboard for ideas
Sharing ideas is another way of making a more creative workplace. If you have a thought, just write it on the whiteboard and let the others help or build on your idea. Another benefit of that solution is that it makes employees valuable and that they have real input into their work.
