The Toronto and Etobicoke Boards of Education are both offering a ten week evening course on lateral thinking skills in business- an introduction. starting next week (week of Sept 30th). (Tuesday or Wednesday evening). It's a compressed version of a 14 week course that I teach at Conestoga College in Kitchener, near Toronto. Organizations who are outside of Toronto or wish to explore custom in-house workshops for their staff are invited to call us as well. We've conducted various hands-on, application workshops on such topics as: Resolving conflicts and disputes using lateral thinking; The Opportunity Clinic, spotting and creating opportunity scenarios using lateral thinking, Lateral thinking in the nfp or government sectors, Managing Innovation - management systems and generic organizational structures that foster and promote creativity and innovation and Linking Strategic Planning and Lateral Thinking, as well as others.
