E quando criança, usava e abusava da criatividade? Em que momento entre a infância e a vida adulta essa competência se apagou dentro de você? Ken Robinson, reconhecido internacionalmente como a maior autoridade no tema, tem a resposta para essa última pergunta e oferece reflexões sobre como podemos despertar o potencial criativo, uma das habilidades mais importantes no mercado de trabalho hoje. Em Somos todos criativos, Robinson defende que todos podemos ser criativos, mostra como ela está onipresente nas crianças e adormecida em muitos adultos - e o fenômeno que causa esse desaparecimento -, explora o valor da criatividade para os negócios e oferece uma abordagem inovadora para recuperá-la. Este livro ajudará você a: * entender como o sistema atual de educação está contribuindo para a perda de criatividade; * compreender a importância de promover um ambiente de inovação; * explorar maneiras para manter a criatividade viva; * analisar o papel do líder criativo dentro de uma companhia. Ao abordar o assunto, Robinson traz à tona os principais problemas encontrados no sistema educacional e apresenta diversos exemplos de escolas que estão tendo sucesso na implantação de um ensino para a criatividade.

Sir Ken Robinson changed the lives of millions of people. The embodiment of the prestigious TED conference, his TED Talks are watched an average of 17,000 times a day--a figure that Chris Anderson, Head of TED, says is the equivalent of selling out the Millennium Dome every night for fifteen consecutive years. A New York Times bestselling author, Sir Ken's books have been translated into twenty four languages. In his final years, Sir Ken was working on a book that would serve as his manifesto. This book was being written for both new and dedicated audiences alike as a coherent overview of the arguments that he dedicated his life to, and as a pivotal piece of literature for the education revolution he began. When Sir Ken received his cancer prognosis in August 2020 he asked his daughter and collaborator, Kate Robinson, to finish writing this manifesto and continue his work. At its core, Sir Ken's work is a love letter to human potential, it is a celebration of what we as a species are capable of doing, and of being, if we create the right conditions. It is a rallying cry to revolutionize our systems of education, and the ways in which we run our businesses and structure our social systems, so that they bring out the best in each and every person. Sir Ken often observed that what separates us from the rest of life on Earth is our power of imagination--the ability to bring to mind things that are not present to our senses. It is imagination that allows us to create the world in which we live, rather than just exist in it. It also gives us the power to recreate it\"--\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/ken-robinson-books\"\u003eKen Robinson\u003c\/a\u003e (all their books in stock)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 115\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Penguin Publishing Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780141990972\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Poor Condition — £5.40","offer_id":47953777492145,"sku":"SB-014199097X-C4","price":5.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/014199097X.jpg?v=1789963790"}],"url":"https:\/\/sellbooks.co.uk\/collections\/ken-robinson-books.oembed","provider":"Sell Books .co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
