Podcasts about creative skills

Why cultivate creativity? Along with helping us at work and at home, another key reason is to navigate ambiguity and to build a "future-ready mindstate" that can surf the waves of an increasingly chaotic world. Intense, creative play is what helps create powerful childhood friendships, along with rituals and mechanisms for thriving during a transition to a new environment. For children, it's the transition to adulthood; for adults, it's living in a rapidly changing society in which tools like artificial intelligence, synthetic biology, and big data challenge our imagination, our limits and the status quo. Stanford faculty Scott Doorley and Carissa Carter, along with Google's Creative Skills for Innovation Lab founder Frederik G. Pferdt, have published two inter-related books on applying creativity and design to manage our futures. They're going to lead us in some simple (and playful!) exercises to help us learn some foundational design and creativity skills that might also help us steer our way through a world in flux. Join us while we re-awakening our ability to be amazed and to be imaginative with the assistance of the top creativity trainers in the world!

In a world with lots of content noise, play to the silences. Let your messaging be simple and clear, and even short. In this episode, we're learning from the musician who let there be simplicity and space. Who played his trumpet in a sparse style so that each note was beautiful and carefully chosen. That's Miles Davis.And with our special guest, Ben Lempert, Director of Content & Web at Heap, we're talking about creating simple messaging, capturing different voices, leaving room for spontaneity, and the importance of feeling in your marketing.About our guest, Ben LempertBen Lempert is Director of Content & Web at Heap. He has been there for over 4 years, having joined in August 2019 as Head of Corporate Marketing. During his time in his current role, Ben has built a Thought Leadership Content Hub to curate all of Heap's content and facilitate the stages of the buyer's journey, created the Heap Digital Insights Report, which generated thousands of leads and a 50% increase in content downloads, created the Digital Experience Insights Report series, which generated 6000+ downloads and bylines in Forbes and VentureBeat, developed creative initiatives including the Heap Comic Book and the Heap Explainer video series,  grew SEO traffic from 0 to 29,000+ visitors/month, increased social media followers by 100% over three successive years, and grew PR SOV 25% QoQ for nine successive quarters. He has over 10 years of experience in content strategy, brand, comms, creative, editing, and leadership.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Kind of Blue:Create simple messaging. Distill your message into plain but pointed language directed at your particular audience. Ben says, “What people respond to in Kind of Blue, and I think what people often respond to best in good content, is a simple, clear, open, direct message. I think a lot of companies get very complex in talking about the nuances of their solution and the technical advantages their product offers. I think it's worth it in the content world for most companies to think about what your fundamental message is, whether that's one sentence or one paragraph or four words. What's the thing that people will respond to that explains what you do and why it matters in a unique way? It's very hard to get to. I don't think many companies do it well. It's very easy to come up with something that's too abstract to be meaningful.”Capture different voices. Feature quotes from both your customers and colleagues in your content. Gather info and input from all of them and work it into your content. You don't have to operate all alone on a marketing island. Ben says, “Jazz, like content, is a team activity. I think one of the great things about Kind of Blue is that there's room for lots of individual voices. When we think about representing our company through our content, it's worth recognizing that there are plenty of voices across the company. And they all have different ways of expressing what's important. So it's okay to vary the voice and story you're telling, as long as you have a fundamental story that is simple and clear. What's on top of it involves orchestrating these different voices in a way that hits people in different ways and allows for nuance and complexity to be added to your story.”Leave room for spontaneity. Yes, get your work done. But then leave a little time to experiment and play. Ben says, “We are all extraordinarily busy. But sometimes the best marketing comes from carving out time for free form group thinking. Brainstorming, coming up with ideas that are new and off the wall, having that be a prompt.”Mood and feeling matter. Instead of getting into the nitty gritty technical details, focus on how you make the customer feel. Ben says, “Kind of Blue has that impact on you because of the way it sounds. You're not listening to every single note and you're not listening to Coltrane saying, ‘Oh, he played a flat 13 there. Whoa, that's wild!' It impacted you on a deeper, more emotional level. And we often forget that as content writers, that our audience are not robotic automatons. They're people. And we want to hit their emotions. That's where you reach people.” So ask yourself, “How do I want to make my audience feel?”Quotes*”[Kind of Blue] is one of the very few jazz records that most people who are not jazz fans own and listen to actively. And I think there are lots of reasons for that. And I think that gives us a pretty interesting lens for thinking about how content works, given that lots of content is directed towards people who may not be aware of the intricacies of your technical solutions, but still want to be compelled by what you have to say and want to be interested in it.” - Ben Lempert*”Miles was famous for having a very sparse style, very much interested in playing space. And for him, he was very actively thinking about how to play the silence and the space between notes as much as he was playing the actual notes. So he was super minimalist, would play one or two notes, but they would be absolutely beautiful and absolutely brilliant and took a sort of courage to play those one or two notes that very few musicians have. It's much easier to play a lot of notes and hope you get something right. It's much harder to have that one pithy statement and let it hang there.” - Ben Lempert*”Always strive to create a simple, communicable foundation that ideally everyone in the company can embody. And when the audience receives it, they understand right away. And then you build complexity on top of that.” - Ben LempertTime Stamps[0:55] Meet Ben Lempert, Director of Content & Web at Heap[4:37] Ben Lempert's Journey from Jazz Musician to Director of Content[8:47] The Making of Kind of Blue: A Revolutionary Jazz Album[10:20] Miles Davis' Vision and the Birth of Modal Jazz[23:59] Kind of Blue's Legacy and Impact on Jazz and Beyond[28:24] Exploring the Creative Process and Expectations[29:51] The Power of Minimalism in Music and Marketing[33:44] Improvisation: Jazz Lessons for Conversational and Creative Skills[36:12] Marketing Wisdom from Jazz: Simplicity, Emotion, and Spontaneity[48:38] Heap's Content Strategy: Blending Business Goals with Creative Storytelling[55:12] Embracing Experimentation and Spontaneity in Content CreationLinksListen to Kind of BlueConnect with Ben on LinkedInLearn more about HeapAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

In 2020, creativity was the most highly demanded soft-skill by employers. And the demand for creativity isn't expected to go down anytime soon. But how can educators bring creativity and fresh ideas to their classroom?  There's no one better to discuss creativity than Tacy Trowbridge (on Twitter, @tacytrow). Tacy is a lifelong educator and learning enthusiast whose passion is inspiring learners in all stages of learning, giving them a voice and empowering them to develop essential skills. Today, she drives thought leadership and advocacy for Adobe's Global Education Team and is the host of The Creative Educator Podcast.

Tacy started her career as a teacher in California schools, earned a master's degree in Learning, Design and Technology at Stanford, and then led learning and research initiatives at the University of California and Stanford.

The history of civilization is the history of creativity. You cannot talk meaningfully about the past without bringing up the most important people and inventions of the time. We are here today because of the creativity of the past. Creativity and culture are inseparable. In no small way, creative people are responsible for the world around us. From time to time in this podcast, I'm going to highlight different people, inventions, or time periods important to creativity. While I don't intend to go through each era of creativity in chronological order, since this is the first episode where I talk about a creative era, I'm going to start from the very beginning. We won't go all the way back to stone tools and cave paintings. Cave paintings are interesting in their own right, but they're less consequential than what I have in mind. I don't want to turn these episodes into a history show. I'll gloss over the dates things happen. I'm also going to do my best to make sure that this isn't a list of bullet points about history that have no real takeaway for listeners. We'll keep our focus on the main events of the time period, what creativity meant to the people living in it, and how we can apply the lessons to our own creativity. Pre-civilized people had their own type of creativity. They discovered how to use items they found as tools, then how to make their own tools. And with all the time they saved, they taught themselves how to draw a mean stick figure Buffalo on cave walls. The rate of change was incredibly slow during this period. So much time was spent on survival that there was little time to devote to other activities. Creativity is built by combining various ideas together to form something new. The more ideas you have to play around with, the more combinations you can make. This is why expertise is so important to creativity. With few ideas to build off of, creativity was relatively stagnant. Creativity is built off of the past, so what do you do when you have no past to build off of? You'd think the creativity of pre-civilized humans would break this rule, but it actually doesn't. Pre-civilized humans built creative ideas off the past just like we do today. They did it using two creative tools that are still incredibly important to us today: Observation and experimentation. Civilization was largely formed on the back of 4 major innovations: The ability to grow food in abundance meant that people no longer had to all be hunter gatherers. It satisfied the bottom layer of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. Before this, there simply wasn't time available for the creative process to take place. The second innovation was labor specialization. This meant that for the first time in human history, people could focus their attention on specific areas unrelated to finding their next meal. With labor specialization, there were new opportunities to work together. Suddenly, you had something that I couldn't make myself and I had something you wanted. We needed to work together in a way that humanity had never done before. This required the third innovation: The organization of society.
