Practical Creativity Action Exercises to Support Creative Thinking and Action
Creativity can become blocked when pressure, control, or urgency take over. You may notice yourself dismissing ideas too quickly, feeling impatient with the creative process, or struggling to create space for experimentation — especially when leading others.
The Creativity Action Bridge™ is a set of free, practical creativity action exercises designed to support reflection and encourage small, intentional creative actions. The exercises focus on creating space for ideas, supporting creative conversations, and enabling creativity within real-world constraints.
This is not a course or a creativity theory guide. It’s a short, practical resource you can use whenever you want to approach creativity with more openness and less pressure.

What’s included in The Creativity Action Bridge™
Inside this free PDF, you’ll find three practical creativity exercises:
-
Exercise 1: The 2-Minute Creative Reset
A short pause-and-reflect exercise to help you notice and shift your creative state in the moment. -
Exercise 2: The Creative Freedom Conversation
A structured framework to support creative delegation and psychologically safe conversations. -
Exercise 3: The Daily Creativity Check-In

Each exercise includes clear prompts and can be used at your own pace.
How to use these creativity exercises
You can use the exercises whenever creative tension arises — during planning, delegation, or reflection. Some people return to the daily check-in for short periods, while others use individual exercises when specific situations come up.
There’s no expectation to complete everything. The aim is to support awareness, experimentation, and thoughtful creative action.
