In this episode, Mike talks with Craig Sybert, Senior Systems Consultant at Envolve Media and Producer/Creator of the Music Musing Podcast. They discuss creativity and its importance in the workplace.

Key Takeaways:

• You can be creative, but unless you have the basics, you can’t really starting playing with it and creating.
• Creativity helps you think things through deeper than the surface level
• In order to be creative in a certain field, you need to keep up with the current trends.
• Knowing your audience is definitely one of the things you have to do in order to pick the right tool.
• Everyone has an interest in something. The creative side comes out if you put the passion that you have for that hobby or that thing you like into creating a different way of looking at that or a different way of experiencing that.
• Creativity is not something everyone chooses to show or chooses to put out into the world.
• Creativity gets lost if you don’t know the tool well.
• Have people question you and challenge you to do something different.
• Go to a conference in your field and talk to people.
• ADDIE - Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation
