Client Impacts
Challenge Yourself
Challenge: The Vice President of Education and Planning of a historical multi-cultural institution founded on the belief that everyone "has a right to be all that he can be -- to know all that he can know" offered COMPIO the opportunity to present an open-enrollment program supporting their mission.
Strategy: COMPIO coached participants through five half-day sessions designed to help them: develop a stronger understanding of their creative potential, tools that counter blocks to accessing and using creativity, and practice habits that enable them to become more consistently creative in work and life.
Outcomes: Participants identified concrete new ways to apply talents and strengths, and reframe setbacks. They practiced strategies to clear their minds, and divorce their efforts from their moods; challenged assumptions that stifle innovation; and defined new ways to
achieve important goals. Individual results participants have reported include: jump starting a writing career, choosing collaborators more effectively, expanding a business model, using stronger "attending" behaviors to engage clients, and re-committing to developing personal creativity and the creativity within their teams. COMPIO has also been invited back several times to offer a similar process to new participants.
