creativity feeling a little crushed?

I saw a tweet recently pointing fun at that classic ‘forced creativity’ teams are sometimes made to do; locked up in an ill-lit office for four hours, perhaps a paid-for light lunch or a packet of biscuits, told to come up with the ‘best ideas you’ve ever had’ for [insert campaign/launch/crisis here].

Sometimes progress is made that way, most likely it’s a little while after, when people have had time to sit with some of the ideas and a moment of clarity comes to them. What’s worse than that forced creative time in an unforgiving office room I hear you ask? ALL OF LOCKDOWN. Well, maybe.

I could have ended the blog right there! But Comms don’t quit…

NEW resource time – need a hand stemming the tide of work demands?

August 3, 2020 Darren Caveney
aren't we all comms people now.jpg

I have a theory that Covid focused the minds of many a management team to the point that some of the daft and less important comms requests went away. And guess what – comms teams across the sectors delivered some outstanding work delivering for their communities, their patients, their residents and their vulnerable citizens. Serious hours have been worked but with a laser-like determination of supporting our communities through the pandemic.
