  Over the years, I have found using the Synectics approach to creative problem solving to be invaluable. They allow people to not only become more creative, but also to better communicate, give and receive feedback, and ensure a free flow of ideas. Using Synectics extensively as part  our qualitative consumer research has resulted in defining consumer opportunities and developing successful new concepts.

  It’s a pleasure to work with Connie on a project and leverage her years of experience and diverse category knowledge. She has a unique ability to galvanize and focus a diverse team so they can effectively work together to uncover the often hidden and unarticulated insights that truly drive consumers’ behavior. Furthermore, she develops brilliant exercises and projects for both teams and consumers to illuminate these insights themselves.

  From the beginning, it was apparent that we were going to benefit from the outcome and the process.  We concluded the session with two very viable solutions, each with our next steps and accountabilities outlined. What was enjoyable and truly valuable was how well you managed the process of “out there” thinking that led to creative and then feasible ideas. The session strengthened the team and brought out our best ideas and prepared us to put them into action.

  Connie is so creative it is scary. She creatively teaches creativity. I have been lucky to work with Connie over the years. She teaches people that creativity is not a gift from birth, rather a process one can learn. This is a hopeful message for anyone who has struggled alone to solve a problem. It does not have to be that way.
