Encourage employees to get their creative thinking hats on

Everyone knows that creative thinking is one of the crucial building blocks behind every successful company – billions are made from good ideas every year, yet the equivalent is lost in equally good ideas that get buried or aren’t taken seriously.
 
The benefits of putting in place a culture of creative thinking is huge. It doesn’t matter what industry you’re in, and creativity isn’t the preserve of the traditionally creative industries or roles either. Every employee can have good ideas, so businesses should encourage everyone to be open about their thoughts.
