He shares his recent dissertation research on team creativity preferences and social style behaviors, as well as insights from helping numerous teams apply the creative process.  Mike discusses how he uses FourSight and Creative Problem Solving to help explain how teams interact and how they can improve. With over 20 years in the field, he focuses on teaching people about creativity and the creative process, and his work at IBM involves helping teams develop a reusable creativity process.  Learn about his views on the future of creativity using artificial intelligence to augment human imagination and be more efficient, not to replace human creativity.
