Welcome to Episode 004: Cool, but does creativity really matter?
In this episode, we talk about why humans value creativity so much. Why does creativity appear in all cultures, places, and moments in history? We suggest creativity was instrumental in humans becoming the world's most dominant animals. We look at the power of creativity in the realm of beauty and human expression, how it helps cultures differentiate themselves and express their values, and solve their problems. We also talk about creativity is predicated on the idea that things can be better in the future.
From your friends at Berghs School of Communication comes a podcast about creativity in a nutshell. We know that everyone is creative and part of our mission is to help people get in touch with their creative side, and to help them develop - both personally and professionally. We believe that creativity is key to both imagining, and creating a better world, and a brighter future.

And fear, and money, and a love of expensive cheeses, but mainly he's driven by curiosity... He does it because he's fascinated by how people tick. He wants to know how everything works. Why something’s funnier in Finland than France. Why some people love sudoku while others share cat videos.

In this episode, we discuss why creativity is a cornerstone of almost all jobs. It’s not just artists, musicians, and architects. We discuss the pros and cons of choosing a creative career, and why passion can only get you so far, and why we love hobbies on the side of your day job. We discuss how creative minds are always looking at the world in interesting ways. We also talk about the range of creative careers that we at Berghs can help launch - from writing to UX (user experience), from PR (public relations) and art direction.

Welcome to Episode 002: Why limits are creativity’s best friend
In this episode, we explore why it’s always best to put limits or constraints on creativity and problem-solving. We explain why your brain loves these limits and how it becomes wildly inventive as it thinks around a problem creatively and laterally. They also offer a structure that makes sure that you’re solving the problem you most want to solve. But perhaps the most important thing is that frame helps remove some of the subjectivity when it comes to assessing the quality of ideas - especially important when working in teams.

Welcome to Episode 001: The myth of the creative genius (and why it needs to die!)
In this episode, we burst the bubble of the creative genius. We discuss where this myth comes from, why it’s so destructive and anxiety-inducing, and why we should all see ourselves are creatives. Because we all are. We also set out to define what creativity is - and why so many things you do all the time, are acts of creativity. This loser definition of creativity can help loosen people up to the idea that they’re a creative genius in their own way.
