The Centre’s vision is to build a global community of creative thinkers and practitioners who work together to lead positive change. It aims to achieve this by inspiring and enabling new generations of creative leaders who will investigate, generate, envision, prototype, critique and reflect on novel solutions to complex modern challenges, and go on to empower teams and organisations to do the same.

We live and work in a world that is increasingly complex, interconnected, fast-moving and uncertain, where a different style of leadership is needed. Traditional management approaches are falling short in responding to the challenges we must address, and the need for creativity and innovation to drive positive change has never been greater.
