    About The Accidental Creative

    Many of us assume that our creative process is beyond our ability to influence, and pay attention to it only when it isn’t working properly. For the most part, we go about our daily tasks and everything just “works.” Until it doesn’t. Adding to this lack of understanding is the rapidly accelerating pace of work. Each day we are face escalating expectations and a continual squeeze to do more with less. We are asked to produce an ever-increasing amount of brilliance in an ever-shrinking amount of time. There is an unspoken (or spoken!) expectation that we’ll be accessible 24/7, and as a result we frequently feel like we’re “always on.” Now business creativity expert Todd Henry explains how to unleash your creative potential. Whether you’re a creative by trade or an “accidental creative,” this book will help you quickly and effectively integrate new ideas into your daily life.

    About The Accidental Creative

    Have better ideas, faster, without the stress and burnout.

    It isn’t enough to just do your job anymore. In order to thrive in today’s marketplace, all of us-even the accountants-have to be ready to generate brilliant ideas on demand.

    Business creativity expert Todd Henry explains how to establish effective practices that unleash your creative potential. Born out of his consultancy and his popular podcast, Henry has created a practical method for discovering your personal creative rhythm. He focuses on five key elements:

    •Focus: Begin with your end goal in mind.
    •Relationships: Build stimulating relationships and ideas will follow.
    •Energy: Manage it as your most valuable resource.
    • Stimuli: Structure the right “inputs” to maximize creative output.
    •Hours: Focus on effectiveness, not efficiency. This is a guide for staying inspired and experiencing greater creative productivity than you ever imagined possible.
