Watch: How to lead with creativity and innovation

To celebrate innovation in times of uncertainty, the team at Pendulum are sharing their eight-day video series on RTÉ LifeStyle so as to give viewers a sneak peek into the organisation's leadership programme.

If you are looking for an efficient and innovative way to train and inspire management teams, these lessons are for you. In today's video, we're looking at leadership creativity and innovation.

Creativity is core to our ability to live a full life and thrive in businesses, but what is it exactly? Where does it come from, and how can we 'invest' in it? Many people tend to think of creativity as talent, usually, an artistic talent like drawing or performance, which some people have and others do not. 

Put simply, creativity is the act of using your imagination to create original or ‘novel’ ideas, and most people do this on a regular basis without calling it ‘creativity’. We might call it ‘problem-solving’ or ‘brainstorming’, and the outcomes of it range from practical solutions to imaginative stories depending on the context and need.
