Happy Lost Sock Memorial Day! 🖍
This was one of the fastest doodles I’ve done in response to a prompt from one of the Creative Sandbox Community creative challenges. It made me smile, it put me in a good mood. It got my creative juices flowing. Which is, of course, the point! 😊
🖍
Part of the point is also to be inspired by what others are doing, and today’s sketch by @carla.la.la.olson made me laugh out loud! Definitely check it out! (Alas, unless you’re a member, you won’t be able to see what everyone else is doing, because they’re all sharing inside the Creative Sandbox Community. But you can get on the invite list for when the doors open again next month: http://bit.ly/2pPbRDZ 😊)

Did you know questions are the best way to find answers to tough problems? 🖍
Here’s the top part of a sketchnote of an article about the Question Burst, a 4-minute form of brainstorming in which you collectively capture only QUESTIONS, written up as “Better Brainstorming” by Hal Gregersen in the March-April 2018 issue of HBR and summarized on episode 160 of The Creative Sandbox Way™ podcast, just dropped this morning.

(I’ve learned my lesson—no more vertical orientation layouts! Square from here on out! Social media has forever changed design… I’ll share the bottom half in the next post.)

Working on flip charts for upcoming team building workshops. We’re all about handmade graphics here at Creative Sandbox Solutions, as you can see. It’s that handmade touch that makes people sit up and take notice nowadays.

Happy Coconut Cream Pie Day – May 8! I love learning some of the “National Days,” thanks to this month’s creativity challenge inside the Creative Sandbox Community, hosted by @lbcoop.
🖍
The community is my lab for women’s leadership through creative expression, and a discussion inside the community came up with this definition of the kind of leadership we’re fostering: not authoritarian leadership, but “linked-elbows leadership.”
🖍
Collaborative leadership, where we move each other and ourselves forward by linking elbows with each other.
🖍
If that’s the kind of leadership that resonates with you, get on the invite list to join us at http://bit.ly/2pPbRDZ

Working on more “analog PowerPoint” sheets… er… analog slides..? for upcoming LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® values and visioning workshops. Because that’s how we roll at Creative Sandbox Solutions — people zone out to digital slides these days, but we find they really engage with handmade, so we take the extra time and make handmade presentations. 🖍
It’s that extra little step, that actually takes a ton more work on our end, but it’s worth the effort.
