It’s graduation season! College seniors are getting ready to walk that stage, receive their diplomas, and enter the workforce.

As a new graduate, working on your creative ability is important. Being an asset to your company by generating creative ideas will make you stand out and leave a great impression on your new employer. In every challenge you encounter in adult life, being able to think about and attack those situations creatively puts you a step ahead of everyone else.

Today, I want to teach you how to start doing this. Tune in to learn five tips on how you can step into a new job and start making a creative impact right off the bat.

In this episode you’ll hear:

  1. Why you should identify the constraints of your new situation or job.
  2. What constraints do.
  3. How imagining that you’re solving someone else’s problem increases your problem-solving abilities and creative output.
  4. The importance of breaking your big problems down.
  5. Why brainstorming doesn’t work.
  6. The golden rule of creativity and how to apply it at work.
