Creativity workshop

I and another colleague thought to conduct a workshop for our company employees. We discussed to choose a topic. As I had been thinking to take a session on creativity and it kept on postphoned, I suggested to have workshop on crativity. We dicussed to have some activity for this. My colleague came up with some activity which would make eveyone thinks. The plan was drafted about how to conduct and what to talk during workshop. We planned to have an activity of making eggs fly. After the activity, we thought that we would collect the information about how they would arrive at ideas and others. Thereafter, I would talk about creativity. On the very day of executing the plan, we called eveyone in the office and we told them about the activity. We gave all neccessary items that would help them to make eggs fly. We asked them to get the working solution. We divided them all into different teams and took care not dominate any person in the group by putting all senior guys in a single team.

We asked all teams to go to different locations, so that they would not have any influence from any other team. After the given time elapsed, we called all teams to demo their activity. After demo was over and we asked them to answer few questions. We have collected all information and took over the procedings to discuss on the topic. I starated discussions with an intention to tell everyone was creative. I explained about what is creativity and how everyone was creative in the give activity. I talked about advantages of crativity and how to improve crativity.
