Leverage your Creative ID profile
Creative ID™ is a psychometric assessment which shows how (rather than if!) you are creative. The tool is developed by Danish innovator, Hanne Kristiansen in partnership with Dr. Kamal Birdi and his team at the University of Sheffield (UK). Creative ID™ is born in business and backed by science (rather than the other way round), making it a powerful impact-focused framework that equips individuals with the self-awareness needed to tackle even the toughest of work challenges.
WHAT

LEARNING BUDDY
Each delegate will be paired with another to form a learning partnership. As learning 'buddies', you are responsible for encouraging and supporting one another. Your role is to hold the other accountable not only to attend all the sessions but to be fully present and to put your learning into action.Â

Muriel Denruyter
Senior Consultant in Business Development & Marketing I Legal Services, Legal Buzz, Brussels
"Over the past four weeks, I have had the privilege of participating in the "Leverage Your Creative Intelligence in Law" program, jointly run by Creativity Wake-Up and Creative ID. I have enjoyed the sessions thoroughly. Nina Pearse, Celia Falkenberg and Hanne Kristiansen expertly guided us through various methods to stimulate our creative intelligence. One particularly interesting session focused on understanding our creative styles."
Amy King
Knowledge Lawyer | Webber Wentzel in partnership with Linklaters
"I absolutely loved the programme. My favourite aspect of the course was that it fostered interaction and accountability. I have never experienced another course that was structured like this, and I really would love to attend more courses that are run like this.
My challenge was trying to get everyone in my team to be more creative and to step into thought leadership roles. I came up with a new approach during the course that has worked incredibly well. It feels like a complete win-win."
Michelle Diers
Associate, Infrastructure and Construction | Webber Wentzel in partnership with Linklaters
"“The programme was eye-opening. Forcing yourself to look at things from different angles is the most important thing that I’ve taken away from the course. Not just to approach something with blinders on. To step back, look at potential pitfalls, assess the damage control, and then go for it.
To have people from all over the world was something special. It was amazing to connect with people and see their different ways of approaching things.”
