Newsflash: You're already creative and your brain may be blocking your creativity. 

Clearly, this is an important question -
 
How to unblock what's in the way of your creativity?   

Pete Ophoven addresses this question by championing the value of understanding and leaning into the 'how' for developing one's creativity. This is doable, especially when we develop an awareness, and pausing to learn and think about creativity as we experience it, however foreign and uncomfortable it may be. 

Pete talks about the RDCA, the Riesman Diagnostic Creativity Assessment.


Pete Ophoven is an assistant professor at Bellevue College in Seattle, Washington and Drexel University in Pennsylvania.
