Striving for more, The Leader is carving new creative possibilities through skills and tools both within and beyond their team and into the work culture. You’re leading from the front and making new possibilities that have inspired others to follow.
You’ve been recognised internally and quickly becoming the go-to person for creative thinking. Even when pulled in many different directions, your team is able to go from strength to strength as you infuse creativity and set yourself even greater challenges.
As a leader, you’re a cross-discipline problem solver whilst your team has adopted a truly agile working structure and is now being deployed onto new projects.
Your team is also creating new working processes to help accelerate the success of others – especially where previous attempts have been unsuccessful. External stakeholders see your team as fast-thinking and active members of the industry, often cited for their work.
You have recognised skills in design-thinking, advanced technology and virtual collaboration, with a strong foundation in using data, insight and analytics to not only shape solutions but evaluate successes.
The organisation has begun to invest based on your direction – after your ability to know and anticipate trends that have seen commercial and customer success.
You and your team should build on the attributes of early technology adoption and advanced critical thinking to scale this approach.
Data
You and your team have an open-source approach to creativity through data – scale this strength further by visualising multiple sources of data to gain a deeper perspective and previously unimagined correlations.
Data can be the driver of innovation and change in an organisation and help to evolve creative leadership within your company.
Culture
You’re on the right track but you need the broader culture to embrace creativity and take it beyond process and into mindset.
Think about how you might build a creative culture beyond the team – to not only develop new ideas but also build empathy and loyalty – this is best done through open discussion and illustrative examples.
