Andy Green FCIPR

Fourth edition

About this book

What is it that adds sparkle and life to a well-planned and implemented public relations campaign? It is the 'ah' factor: the brilliantly simple, but inspired creative idea. Creativity isn't just a gift that some possess and others others don't – it is a skill that can easily be taught.

This fully updated third edition includes three new chapters:

  • improve flexible thinking
  • creativity as a consultation tool
  • identifying new opportunities

Packed with practical examples and based on the research of those in the PR industry who are regarded by their peers as 'creative'. The reader is guided through ways of using and managing different techniques and tips to generate creative ideas.

This book also looks at:

  • the five 'I's of the creative process: information, incubation, illumination and illustration
  • techniques for stimulating ideas
  • brainstorming
  • evaluating ideas
  • obstacles to creativity
  • the creative individual
  • the creative organisation

Who should buy this book?

PR practitioners and general readers who want to get 'under the skin' of the creative process and to use it to greater effect in their work.
