Thinking Inside the Box: How Tough Times Fuel True Creativity and Innovation
We've all said it: "If only I had ________, then I could do __________.“ We're convinced that the only thing standing between us and our best work is more money, more time, more resources, more buy-in, a better team, a better boss, a better piece of software… the list goes on.
But the truth is, real creative work thrives within constraints. True creative work exists in the gap between what you have and what you think you need. After all, if you had everything you needed, you wouldn't need creativity at all. True creativity showed up when the Apollo 13 astronauts had to make square filters fit round tubes. It showed up when a global pandemic made in-person work a liability. And it'll show up for you too, once you let go of your misguided beliefs about what true creativity requires.
Attendees will leave with:
- A proven model for driving innovation even in an environment of constraints
- Strategies for removing roadblocks in the creative process
- Practical tips for getting better ideas out of themselves and their teams

Kyle Scheele has been called "the patron saint of crazy ideas". Whether he's having a Viking funeral for the regrets of 21,000 people, hosting the world's first fake marathon or gaining a million TikTok followers in just 25 hours, Kyle is always on the lookout for crazy ideas that produce wildly outsized outcomes.
Over the last decade, his projects have been featured in outlets like Fast Company, WIRED, The Washington Post, Yahoo!, BuzzFeed, UpWorthy, Goalcast and more. His videos have been viewed over 250 million times, and he has spoken to hundreds of thousands of audience members across the United States.
