EP41: Creative Intelligence. Dr Cherylene de Jager

--:--
“All of us are born with an abundance of curiosity and creative potential. We started our journeys exploring and embracing the world with awe and our curiosity knew no boundaries. We approached everything without fear and with great enthusiasm”. These are the words of Dr. Cherylene de Jager, our guest on this week’s episode of The DOC & The GURU podcast, and if you want to hear how the story continues, listen for free (the link is in the comments section below).

In a fascinating and highly engaging episode, she talks about her new book, which she wrote with Emeritus-Professor, Anton Muller, Creative Intelligence (CQ) @ Play: Shaping Your Future in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Cherylene has also coined a definition of innovation that is featured on a list of Top 50 Innovation Quotes that includes innovation definitions from the likes of Bill Gates and Steve Jobs. Her definition is “Innovation is Creativity Commercialised”. Her book is available through Knowledge Resources and Amazon.

So, it’s never too late to reignite your creative spark as creativity is a skill that can be unleashed at any age, no matter your career circumstances – you just need the right tools to unlock it. And this book is a great mixture of theory and practical creativity exercises to help you fulfill your potential and develop your creative confidence. So, if you want to hear about Humpty Dumpty, Donkey Ears, why an IQ test alone is too limiting, innovation, the correct culture, purpose and passion, and a whole lot more…then don’t miss this episode.
