Access untapped creative potential within individuals and teams to drive innovation.
Many see productive creativity as something that ‘hopefully happens’. Jamie invites audience members to awaken the creative force that has often been long buried under expectations, fear, conformity and other unconscious blocks. Utilising his experience from film and music projects, along with Jungian shadow work and tools gathered on global travels, he demonstrates how each individual can access their available stream of creativity and innovation. Through illuminating examples, attendees are shown how to free themselves from internal blocks, shed masks of perfection, and switch on their innate inspiration at will. With humour and vulnerability, Jamie helps shift culture from blame and inertia, to curiosity and real results. The outcome: soaring engagement, richer communication, and abundant creativity.

Building stronger teams and more effective communication by embracing empathy and humanity.
Mental health days and absence is soaring to record highs. The epidemic of loneliness and lack of genuine connection is a huge limitation on the productivity and thriving atmosphere needed in the workplace. Although generally resisted, empathy and vulnerability can become corporate superpowers. Jamie shows team members how to safely lower their guards and masks, and to gradually dare to be more authentic and trusting, and feel part of the team. He demonstrates how letting go of “performance” fosters honesty and connection, in a workplace culture of playfulness and honesty, which ends miscommunication as teams bond around a shared purpose.

Reframe obstacles, learn from setbacks, and turn "shadows" into powerful drivers for growth
Jamie turns corporate adversities into opportunities, guiding audiences to efficiently reframe obstacles as invitations, not threats, and to use “shadow work” to convert setbacks into fuel. With the correct tools and framing, it is possible to transform all so-called failures into discoveries, to encourage sensible risks, harvesting treasure that is usually unavailable to the fear-based, performance-anxious workforce. With real world examples, Jamie helps audience members meet and draw immediate benefits from their fears and doubts, and partner with them so that they can bounce back stronger with visionary ideas and a renewed sense of purpose and confidence.
