About this course
Curious about how great leaders lean into creativity to get better results?
If that's you, this online creative leadership course is exactly the kind of practical learning you've been hoping to find.
Here's the thing: the strongest leaders around the world don't treat creativity like a 'nice to have'. They use it to move things forward.
And when we say creativity, we're not just talking about drawing, music, or art. We mean the ability to apply creative thinking to help you and your team innovate, tackle problems more effectively, and reach goals with more confidence.
Throughout the course, you'll pick up lessons that come from a range of well-known and fast-moving businesses, not just theory from a slide deck.
You'll also hear from senior leaders at organisations like Google, Microsoft, Black Rock and Pernod Ricard, plus Dr Jules Goddard from London Business School.
What you'll walk away with is genuinely usable. You'll learn how to turn uncertainty into momentum, and how to encourage the kind of company culture where new ideas can take root and grow.
We'll also cover how to create psychological safety, so people feel comfortable speaking up. That's how teams become more creative and more likely to succeed together.
The whole course is structured in a friendly, straightforward way. It's for big-company leaders and also for the person who's just trying to make their 2 pm meeting count.
When you finish, you'll receive a CDP-accredited certification you can proudly share on your CV or LinkedIn profile.
