We believe in sharing our expertise. In Knowledge Bank you can find articles to help you improve how you and your people think, communicate and act within the Flexible Thinking Approach.

We have two types of article and the content is based on our experience which we are very happy to share with you; you don’t  have to sign in or sign up to obtain it, although we would love you to subscribe to our Creative Gorilla articles so that you receive them regularly! Click on the “John Brooker” link below. 

The two types are:

1.The Creative Gorilla. These are short (fewer than 800 words) articles which we distribute to a mailing list, twice a month. To view these articles, click on the Creative Gorilla link in the box on the right. If you would like to be on the mailing list, send a note to John Brooker with your name, the email address to which you want us to send the Gorilla and your country. Or you can sign up on the Home page. We will be adding all of the articles from #1 to the current issue over the next few months.
2.Longer articles, usually case studies, that explain how we have used a creative technique or methodology with a client. We also include some articles first published in Train the Trainer by Fenman Publishing. Please click on the relevant article title below to obtain a PDF.

In the box on the right you will also find a link to our Blog “Loving Creativity”, which provides you with regular tips on making your meetings more creative. Click on the RSS button at the bottom of the page to be informed about the latest blog.

You will also find a link to our Podcasts of the Creative Gorilla. These we will add gradually over time. 

Finally, we will be adding a link to Tools and Tips for creative thinking very soon.
