Possibility Thinking represents one of C&I\u2019s foundational Creativity Mindsets. But what does that mean?\u00a0 The term was initially coined by educational researcher and former Professor of Education at Exeter University, Anna Craft (1961\u20132014).\u00a0 Craft was particularly interested in everyday manifestations of creative thinking, or, as she put it, \u2018life-wide\u2019 creativity. In her view, Possibility Thinking involves taking action to find and solve problems, using both intuition and logic to meet everyday challenges, and seeing multiple options to enable innovation in all aspects of life. Possibility Thinking involves repeatedly posing the question \u201cWhat if?\u201d to generate multiple possibilities that encompass likely and unlikely solutions to a problem. At C&I, we believe that people often find inspiration for creative approaches to a problem in the realm of the unlikely.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
