Reviews

"Challenges the traditional definition of creativity and highlights how firms are stifling ideas and innovation at a time when it's vital for UK businesses to foster a creative environment in order to stay afloat."
*The Online Recruitment Resource*

"If you are fascinated by where great ideas come from and could do with a boost to help you come up with more, Taylor's guide is an excellent starting point."
*HR Magazine*

"This book is alive, it talks and breathes and yes, it listens! Ros Taylor's book is all the more readable because individual experiences are shared in short stories - her own and those of persons interviewed - and because she offers wise and practical tips at the end of each chapter."
*Keynote speaker, leadership and innovation expert*
