Series 3 Episode 3 – Osmaan Sharif

Series 3 Episode 6 – Hanne Kristiansen

I ask my guests “what does the word creativity mean to you?”. We talk about creative expression and creative thinking, and how those show up in business. In this episode I talk to Hanne Kristiansen, who is the founder of Creative ID. We talk about the relationship between creativity and artistic ability, the five creative styles framework she has developed and how businesses apply this – including how this can apply to freelancers and independent creatives. Creative ID is an evidence-based psychometric tool that identifies five distinct creative styles and helps individuals and organisations understand how they are creative, rather than how creative they are. About me I’m Nina Lenton, and I’m an “untangler” and coach, working with founders and freelancers who have a lot of ideas but aren’t making progress on the ones that matter to them.
