The Duct Tape Guy’s Creativity Seminar can be tailored to fit your time constraints (a minimum of two hours is recommended - three hours is optimum).

Following the presentation of "Duct Tape 101" (the Duct Tape Guys' 30-minute stand-up comedy act) there will be a short break followed by a creativity seminar. First we describe the brain storming process and illustrate how brainstorming has been instrumental in the creation of the Duct Tape Guys' books. The group will be divided up into teams of four to six people. "The Rules" of brainstorming will be outlined, and Tim will lead the group in a series of exercises that will help them become more fluent creative thinkers. Each group will utilize brainstorming techniques to create wacky inventions based on 1) objects on their tables, 2) pick one of their wackiest ideas and convert it to an usable product, 3) sell the idea to the group. (other exercises will be available based on group size and time constraints).

The Duct Tape Creativity Seminar can provide a refreshing break that teaches participants how to "Think Outside of the Box" everyday. Or, it can be directed in such a way that participants actually end up creating new products and services for your company. Either way, the seminar can result in a massive return on your investment.
