The hidden spark to stronger teams and better ideas
Creative work is harder than ever. Ideas alone won’t cut it—teams are burnt out, relationships are strained, and success is slipping.
A Thousand Tiny Sparks offers interactive workshops that help brand and agency teams collaborate better. With hands-on exercises grounded in industry expertise and behavioral psychology, teams leave with the tools to build trust, spark better ideas, and drive success.
Philosophy
We tend to treat creative work like a flame.
Once an idea sparks, we put all of our energy into nurturing and protecting it. We become laser focused on what the flame looks like and how it’s growing.
But creative work is much more like a firework—made from a thousand tiny sparks.
Creative work isn’t just an idea brought to life—it’s thousands of choices, solutions, and interactions. Every small spark matters. Refine the little things, and big ideas follow.
A holistic approach to stronger teams and smarter ideas
Curriculum is made up of three interconnected chapters: Process, People, and Partnership. Strengthening one elevates the others, driving better collaboration and work.
We start workshops with an overview of the creative process. In this chapter, we show you how to harness the power of our subconscious to work smarter, not harder, and establish buy-in through purpose and vision. By focusing on the why rather than the how, teams will run like a well-oiled machine, finding better solutions faster.
Process
People
The right environment turns us into idea magnets. Flexibility, trust, and a sense of fun are essential for discovering new solutions and maintaining energy throughout the process. This chapter helps you build strong relationships while navigating challenging emotions like defensiveness and control. Whether for an internal team or external client partners, this curriculum is customized to fit your unique needs and relationship dynamics.
Partnership
Mastering feedback is one of the most critical skills in creative collaboration. This chapter provides practical tools to turn thoughts and feelings into clear, actionable direction while leaving room for creative possibilities. No matter your role or department, we teach powerful strategies for asking better questions, listening actively, and navigating disagreement to strengthen communication and problem-solving. Finally, we share tricks to keep teams energized throughout the entire process, helping you reach the finish line together.
