The creative process as a tool for proactive change

“Gayle was an inspiring addition to our final year course, ‘Imagination, Creativity and Innovation in Science’. A delight to host, Gayle gave the students confidence to explore new and weird ideas and ways of thinking – it was fun and extremely useful – my students loved it.”
— Dr John Baird, Senior Lecturer, School of Biological Sciences, University of Aberdeen
“Gayle designed a wonderful workshop that enabled participants to use creative thinking as a tool for proactive change. The sound of laughter during the session was one of the best moments of the entire series! We used the framework of Gayle’s ‘Hopes and Wishes’ workshop throughout the community assemblies. I couldn’t have imagined how useful one workshop would be – it was an invaluable part of the assembly.”
— Chris Bodington, Community Development Worker, North East Scotland Climate Action Network Hub
“I really enjoyed the ‘Reaching Beyond the Human’ workshop, it took me out of my comfort zone, and was incredibly inspiring and I loved all the stories shared! The prompts were amazing too, I really got in a zone.”
