The Creativity Workshop changed me forever and moved me forward in managing my companies. The Creativity Workshop is far above all the other creative seminars I've taken in its inspiration, positive spirit, and techniques for nurturing creativity. This workshop is important for anyone who wants to develop their creativity in their personal or business life.
Barbara Roberts, CEO, Acoustiguides, New York City

I cannot tell you enough how much I loved attending your workshop. As a former president of one of the world's leading packaging and design companies, I constantly searched on how to create an atmosphere that fosters innovation and creativity. For anyone in business who is trying to instill more innovation in the workplace, I would strongly recommend attending this workshop and sending your employees to it. In an amazingly short period and for a small investment you walk away with ideas on how to free oneself from rigid and restrained thinking and how to allow creativity to flow into many aspects of work.
Rita Foley, Former President of MeadWestvaco, PetSmart and Dresser-Rand board member. New York, NY

An excellent workshop! You provided new ideas for how to evolve individual creativity into creative collaboration. You were skilled facilitators with a wealth of expertise and knowledge that inspired without overwhelming or intimidating. It was a great experience for my team and one that I know will improve our marketing efforts.
Gail Freeman, Sr. Director Corporate Marketing, RSA, The Security Division of EMC, Burlington, MA

Too often in the workplace, a fear of being judged, of failure, or of appearing foolish stifles our most creative thinking. The Creativity Workshop showed me how to examine, then overcome my personal insecurities. Now I am contributing with more freedom, boldness and confidence than ever before.
Barbara Bazaldua, Director of Editorial, Disney Consumer Products, Anaheim, CA

It was such a great pleasure to meet you and experience the workshop- which
brought me so much joy! Your offering is desperately needed in the marketing
and entertainment realm.
Sara Bordo, President of NowLive, past Exec Director, Interactive Marketing, Paramount Pictures

Thanks once again for such an amazing experience in Florence. I cherished every moment.
Jamie Piekarz, Producer, Corus Entertainment, Toronto, Canada

What impressed me most was the creativity that was brought out in our division. We learned new ways to be creative to meet multiple business needs Our team and the individual relationships are stronger and deeper after this experience. It was amazing just how much we accomplished while at the same time coming away refreshed. It was an incredible time for us all.
Lia Braaten-Hager, Associate Design Director, Global Homecare. Procter & Gamble, Cincinnati, OH

The Creativity Workshop is inspiration for the creative heart, mind and soul.
It gives you tools that will creatively guide you wherever your road takes you.
Nathalie Habib, General Manager, Blink Studios, Dubai

This stuff WORKS! The Workshop showed me how to apply my natural creative talents in the workplace. I have already used free writing and free drawing exercises in business applications to jump-start a team in solving a time-sensitive problem through creativity.
Bill English, In-House Management Consultant, Chick-Fil-A Restaurants, Atlanta

The workshop was amazing! Through the exercises I was put in touch with
long-forgotten events of my youth. I learned new ways to access my memory and how to uncover unexpected relationships in my ideas. An excellent investment indeed and so much fun! William E. Avera, Ph.D, CFA, Economic Consultant, Dripping Springs, TX

I learned how to get back to that "fun" part of writing at the Workshop. Because I write for a living, I had forgotten how to write for fun. Writing without rules or consequences -- letting words and ideas spill out -- taking off the handcuffs I've been wearing in my corporate life. The bonus for me was exploring my creativity in other ways: drawing--to learn how my hand moves; photography-- to learn how to see differently; working with classmates to learn how to collaborate. All this on a Greek Island!
Amy White, Vice President, Internal Corporate Communications, Cardinal Health, OH

Upon arriving in Bruges, I found myself wondering why I flew half way across the world to take a workshop with a bunch of strangers! Well, due to our fabulous instructors, within the first fifteen minutes of the first day of class, there wasn't a stranger in sight, only friends!
JoAnne Southard, Accountant, JMS Consulting, Los Angeles, CA

I was a participant in your Paris workshop about 5 years ago. I truly cherish the memory of that wonderful week with you and our group. Thank you for the confidence you gave me and permission to create something new! After 15 years, I finally finished my book, Staying Healthy in Sick Organizations. In writing this book, when I would get stuck, I would imagine myself back in the workshop doing our visualization and free-form writing and drawing exercises. Somehow, that would get my mind flowing again.
Kathleen A. Paris, Ph.D, Business Consultant

The Creativity Workshop teaches techniques not taught in schools, which are essential for creative thinking. They are also priceless when applied to the creative process of living.
Katie McCann, Trainer, London, United Kingdom

The Workshop helped me expand my views on myself and my creativity. Most importantly, the Workshop taught me about creative structure. Through the gentle guidance of the instructors and through the trusting forum created by the group, I found my route.
Claudine O'Leary. Entrepreneur, London, United Kingdom

The Workshop was such a powerful experience for me, something I never expected nor would I ever be able to repeat it.
Rolfe Werner, Engineer, Canberra, Australia

If your creativity needs a shot in the arm, a whack in the side of the head or a kick in the backside do the Creativity Workshop. Why? Four reasons really: 1.The Instructors - welcoming, passionate, talented and committed to drawing out the best in people. 2.The process and tools - challenging and at the same time empowering and illuminating. 3.Time - to take a block of time from my busy schedule to focus on developing me and my creativity. There is no way I would do that in my everyday life. 4.The environment and other participants - challenging, supportive, each on individual journeys but leaving open the opportunities for paths to cross and to learn from and with each other. It was great.
Wayne Morris, Director of Future Edge - Organizational Improvement Consultancy, New Zealand

Your Workshop was faithful to every word of its description. Workshops are often misrepresented when marketers attempt to hook as many participants as possible. Not this one! Your planning, experience, talent, and dedication create a wonderful flow. I left inspired and energized.
Steve Adams, Small Business Owner, Nacogdoches, TX

The Workshop practices are easy to remember and can be used on an ongoing basis to continue to stimulate creativity. The class was well-paced and offered a lot of ingenious techniques to spark creativity. It was good to see the teamwork between Alejandro and Shelley and to experience their different approaches. I especially liked the good mix of folks who participated in the workshop.
Noemi Santana, OD/HR/C & Govt Rel. Consultant, TANA Communications, NY

The workshop was truly amazing. I walked into it not knowing what to expect and I came out with so many great tools. I'm not a writer per se but I was thrilled by the imagination I discovered was within me. The bonus was the group itself. I made so many great travel buddies. A wonderful experience from start to finish.
Jamie Rotman, President, DesignersCenter.com, Worcester, MA

The workshop was a wonderful and a worthwhile experience and very satisfying in every way. The group was dynamic and the material was presented in a beautifully orchestrated and well-planned way.
Sara Waskuch, Interior Designer, Morrisville, VT

Thank you for a wonderful experience!
Mike Corum, Director, Vermeer Mfg. Co., Pella, IA

I came back so energized and excited about writing my book. Thank you so much for your encouragement and sharing so generously of yourselves.
Kathleen Paris, Ph.D., Sr. Consultant, Office of Quality Improvement, University of Wisconsin Madison

The exercises helped me to explore my creative side, which in my current profession, I don't get to do very often. I highly recommend this workshop for people who are just beginning to explore their creative talents.
Rencher Gutteridge, Field Operations, Chick-fil-A, Inc., Atlanta, GA

The Workshop allowed me for the first time to really hear my own voice and find a way of expressing it in a way that has been so freeing. From the work we did, I now have loads of snippets from which to continue to write and explore. I see this workshop as a transition point in my life where a new and more powerful way of being will come in to its own. I met some fantastic fellow participants.
Nikki Kearns, Director, CRM Standard Bank, South Africa

The Workshop was wonderful and made even more inspiring by the magnificent setting of Barcelona. Since the class, I find myself thinking about creativity every day.
Cherie Martin, Project Manager, MIT, Cambridge, MA

Shelley and Alejandro take you on an adventure that ignites your creative spirit and opens you to greater choices in your life! We were encouraged to see, smell, taste, feel Dublin as a creative task. A journey of co-creation with strangers who became friends. A journey that makes you see life in a whole new way.
Rita Haque, Branding and Marketing, Haq Centre, Singapore

Thank you for the illuminating experience of your Creativity Workshop in Dublin. Even though I've resumed my usual busy working day, I have already put into practice the Workshop's daily practice-- taking 20 minutes to write in my notebook and take a little mental journey away from my business. Your warmth towards us all and your love for what you are doing made for a truly nurturing ambiance.
Judy Spenser-Morris, Designer, Property Developer, Newmarket, United Kingdom

I have wonderful memories of the Workshop. Listening to our calm, wise, and inspiring instructors, sharing stories with one and all, feeling energized and relaxed at the same time. Florence is an exceptional venue!
Greta Thomas, Marketing Officer, City of Wodonga, Victoria, Australia

The workshop was brilliant. Shelley and Alejandro did a great job engaging everyone and inspiring us to create from our own experiences.
Pamela Scholl, Coordinator, Saint Louis University School of Law, MO

I started as a skeptic, and ended up committed to coming back for more! I began the course drawing a tiny gray squiggle and ended up entirely covering a 10ft x 2ft scroll in rich colour and story! Everyone I worked with was making similar giant strides in their ability to express and communicate their own personal vision.
Charles Houghton, ACII, Chartered Insurer, Norwich, United Kingdom.

The Creativity Workshop is one of the best ways to discover a new city. Exploring our creative spirits each evening opened my visual and kinesthetic senses for the following day. The participants were wonderful. They warmly shared their personal lives through the creative writing and drawing exercises.
Nancy Welch, President, Welch Design Group, Madison, WI

The teachers are brilliant at making one feel you're the only person being attended to.
Pauline Crawford, Business Psychologist and Image Consultant, Corporate Heart London, UK

The Creativity Workshop rekindled a bright, playful enthusiasm that was hidden deep within me. The skills and creative concepts that I learned provide an immediate application (as well as amazing and unexpected ideas) - both for my own creative projects and for my professional career. I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to learn from two such amazing artists and passionate instructors.
Eliza Sabo, Corporate Trainer, BMW Group, North America
