Solve Business Problems and Think Creatively Using Freewriting—An Interview with Mark Levy

RainToday.com's Podcast: Marketing & Selling Professional Services

Problem solving requires creative thinking, but too often people get stuck coming up with the same tired solutions. How can you break out of that rut and come up with ideas that solve your business problems? Mark Levy suggests using a process called freewriting, which allows you to explore ideas you might never come up with using traditional methods.

"With freewriting you not only come up with new ideas, but you come up with the ability to share the information with other people in a way that they can follow what it is that you're saying and can act on your words," says Levy. "Freewriting is probably the single most valuable productivity tool I've ever learned in my life."

Listen as Levy, author of Accidental Genius, explains what prevents us from generating unique ideas, the process of freewriting, and how to use freewriting to solve business problems, write articles and books, and prepare presentations.
