How we work

So what exactly is it like to work with the overly enthusiastic creative science geeks over at Inventium?

What you can expect

A significant increase in your team’s ability to think creatively. If you engage us to help you think more creatively, we can guarantee that we’ll be able to get your team brimming with ideas even if they believe they don’t have a creative bone in their body.

Tools that will help anyone generate ideas more efficiently and effectively. If you are after tools to build on the creative juices that are already flowing, you can be sure that the tools we teach you will be powerful enough to help anyone come up with ideas much more efficiently and much more effortlessly.

Better decisions about which ideas to keep and which to leave behind. At Inventium, we apply the latest research in how our brain best makes decisions to give you a proven methodology for making better decisions about which ideas to progress forward and which to leave on the shelf.

“It was unique, immersive learning. It left me with plenty of things I can do and use in the future” – CEO, Deloitte Digital.

“I thought it was brilliant. One of the best workshops undertaken and well and truly the most useful.” – Communications Manager, Ikon Communications

The stuff we believe in

Results are not optional. If we don’t have a significant impact on your team’s ability to think creatively, or if we don’t help you generate some brilliant ideas, then the workshop is on us. That’s right, if you don’t get the results you want, then why should we charge you?

Everyone has the ability to think more creatively. We work with a large variety of people at Inventium, from people who think they are mighty creative through to those who don’t feel like they have a creative bone in their body. Because our tools are based on what has been scientifically proven, we are confident that we can help anyone (no matter what their level) to think more creatively.

Creative thinking and innovation are fun. If you do a training program or workshop with us, chances are you’ll be away from your desk for a whole day. If it were us participating, we would want the day to not only be educational, but also a lot of fun. So we make sure you have some fun, in fact, we make sure you have quite a bit of it.

“The best training program I’ve been to in a long time! The skills we learnt today are going to be extremely useful not only for work purposes, but also in other aspects of my life. An engaging, fun and informative workshop” - Program coordinator, Reach Out!

Our approach

When you work with us, this is what you can expect.

One size doesn’t fit all. We know that all companies have different needs and nuances. So we make sure we are flexible in how we approach projects. Before moving forward on any project, we will insist on having a good chat to you so we can understand exactly what your needs are and how best we can meet them.

Professional-ness. Despite being geeky science people, we know the importance of a tight deadline and great results. So far, there hasn’t been a deadline that we have missed (and we don’t intend this to change) and you can always rely on us to get the job done the way you need it to be done.

Nice, friendly people. We know that we prefer clients who are nice, friendly people. So at Inventium, we do unto others as we want them to do unto us. Which means when you work with us, we want the experience to be a really nice one where you actually like having a chat to us and we like doing the same with you.

"Cutting-edge tools delivered in a fun and inspiring session. Very relevant, thought-provoking and refreshing" – Senior Lecturer, Monash University.

What makes us really unique

Inventium is quite different from other creativity and innovation companies because all the tools are science-based. In practice, this means that we trawl through thousands of studies from around the world that have looked at creativity and innovation. We look at the variables that these top researchers have found to significantly increase people’s ability to think creatively and innovate, and we turn these findings into simple and practical tools that we then give to you. So when you use Inventium to improve the creative thinking abilities of your organisation, you can be sure that the techniques will actually work.

“Loved the tools, easily understood, fun and insightful. Really impressed. Who says science is boring?!” – Innovation Manager, Cerebos
