Tips For Creativity & Problem Solving: “Live In PLAY” Interview
It’s always an honor when someone cares to hear your advice. It is my pleasure to share with you a BlogRadio interview I was part of on Saturday evening that featured… well… me and Idea Sandbox!

Jenny Ward, the Chief Play Activist at Playward, hosts the “Live In PLAY” talk show every Saturday afternoon at 2:30 PST. We chatted for 35 minutes or so, about… how to be creative, tips on being remarkable, and a few other fun thoughts.
Here is the interview, I hope you enjoy it!

by Bill Schley – Help you identify what sets you apart from your competition. - Change The Way You See Everything: Through Asset-Based Thinking
by Kathy Cramer & Hank Wasiak – Helps you understand and become an asset-based thinker. - Now Discover Your Strengths
