Summary:
In this episode, we were joined by Ortal Green, an expert in creative and innovative thinking. With a background in IT startups in Israel, Ortal spent many years working in the high-tech industry where she realised that the ability to succeed in business comes down to our ability to think creatively and innovatively. This set Ortal on a path to eventually become a mindset shifter and founder of Success by Design. Ortal explains how, sadly, our education system does not develop our skills for creative thinking. In a large study, 98% of all children aged 5 were considered ‘creative thinkers’. By the time we become teenagers this drops to less than half, and by the time we become adults, it drops to less than 5%.
Ortal Green shares four proven ways to expand your thinking creatively and innovatively, which inevitably leads to increased business revenue. If you’ve hit a revenue ceiling in your business and you’re looking for ways to break through to new levels of growth and success, don’t miss this episode!
