This is a great opportunity to shine a light on different ways of viewing creativity, exploring creativity as a mindset and what that means.There will also be an element of assessing your own creative DNA through the launch of a diagnostic that helps you better understand where you strengths and weaknesses are — and maybe ignite some to bring creativity into what you do.Agenda<ul><li>4pm - Arrival</li><li>4.30pm - Host opens up and welcome</li><li>4.30pm - 5.30pm - Talks and discussions</li><li>5.30pm - 6pm drinks and networking</li></ul>Speaker line-up
