Innovate Your Facilitation: From Scratch to Sparks!
Facilitated By: Rachel Taylor

Turn your next session from “meh” to mind-blowing with creative strategies, smart design tips, and energizing activities you can use right away! Designing and leading an engaging workshop, training, or meeting is both an art and a science—and it’s easy to get stuck in the “same old” routine. This fast-paced interactive virtual session will show you how to innovate your approach from the ground up. You’ll learn how to design a workshop from start to finish while weaving in creativity that captures attention, energizes participants, and inspires action. Along the way, we’ll explore (and try out!) ready-to-use tools, activities, and games that work for groups of all sizes and settings—whether you’re teaching students, leading a corporate team, or facilitating a community event. You’ll leave with a toolkit full of fresh ideas, practical facilitation tips, and creative sparks to transform your sessions from predictable to unforgettable.

Taking what you learn at Innovation Lab and putting it to use
Facilitated By: Jen Verbakel

After an enlightening and stimulating conference, participants have the chance to give themselves the gift of time for pausing and reflecting, so they can be more effective at implementing change when they get home? This workshop serves as an opportunity for participants to consider what they’ve learned and how they will implement their new ideas. The session will incorporate collaboration, mindfulness, reflection, and planning.

• Participants will experience self-reflection regarding their implementation successes of the past and use that information to support their future endeavors
• Participants will engage in a guided visualization
• Participants will leave with a plan in place for implementing the new ideas they’ve gleaned from the conference

The PIPE: Flowing from Issue to Action in 23 Minutes
Facilitated By: Leonardo Muñoz Pereira

The PIPE is a simple, fast structure that helps you move from a challenge or opportunity to a clear plan of action in just 23 minutes. Grounded in Creative Problem Solving (CPS) and Tim Hurson’s Productive Thinking, it guides you through a focused flow: understanding what is happening, imagining what you want instead, generating the questions that unlock new thinking, producing answers to those questions, and shaping concrete next steps.

In this session you will experience the full PIPE process, explore why our thinking sometimes gets stuck, and learn how structure can restore clarity and momentum. You will leave with a practical tool you can use anytime to support insight, movement, and innovation.

*If you are attending Florida Creativity Conference 2026 Innovate, March 11-14, 2026 these virtual workshops are included in your admission.
