Serendipity in the workplace

The Serendipity Workshop offers a unique experience for administrators, boards and policymakers who want to think outside their usual box. Guided by CGCS, in a one-day workshop you will be challenged not only to rethink your reality, but also to discover how distraction can be the source of creative and innovative ideas.

Serendipity Workshop: Discover new ideas through distraction

In our daily work, we are often guided by habits, fixed patterns of thinking and familiar solutions. This is effective for routine matters, but can get in the way of innovation and renewal. It is precisely by deliberately stepping out of your comfort zone and exploring new ways of thinking that you can come to surprising insights. The Serendipity Workshop creates the space in which this becomes possible.

How does it work?

The workshop revolves around the principle of serendipity: the accidental discovery of something valuable while you are looking for something else. So we put you to work with tasks that at first glance seem obvious and purposeful. However, by distracting, and introducing unexpected twists and surprising situations, you will be challenged to look at problems differently and make new connections.

You will find that this approach is not only confusing, but also enriching. It allows you to break free from familiar frames of mind and look at strategic issues, policy questions or organisational challenges with fresh eyes.
