Creativity

What is creativity?

That’s a very good question! There are no universal definition of creativity, but most researchers seem to agree that it "involves the generation of ideas, insights, or solutions that are both novel and potentially useful". There is also scientific evidence suggesting that creativity is positively connected with well-being in various ways.

What do you do?

I have been taking improvisational theater courses and participated in improv shows for several years (the photo is from a show at Stockholms Improvisationsteater). I am also taking regular acting classes. I find many techniques and experiences from improv and acting very useful in other areas of life as well, and try to incorporate them in my work while teaching, working with groups, and coaching.  

I am also part of an international research team investigating the connection between well-being and creativity. You can find our published research here and here.

I do public speaking, workshops and other events related to creativity, please contact me for more information.
