'Skills for the Future' are those skills which will allow us to effectively and ecologically define, move toward and manage the future amid the challenges of uncertainty and change. The two basic goals for developing skills for the future are to 1) improve performance and 2)
manage change. Reaching these objectives involves competence in such areas as learning, leadership and, perhaps most importantly, creativity. The focus of this book is on how the cognitive and behavioral technologies of Neuro-Linguistic Programming may be used to develop and apply personal and organizational learning strategies together with communication and leadership skills to manage the processes of
creativity and innovation.

The book is composed of three basic parts: 1) Personal Creativity and 2) Co-Creativity and 3) Group Creativity.

Part I shows how some basic NLP models and distinctions may be used to develop more mastery over your internal state and improve your own creative thinking strategies by coordinating your inner dreamer, realist and critic.

Part II emphasizes skills related to helping others to be more creative and to tap into unconscious creative processes through mental mapping and lateral thinking strategies.

Part III focuses on skills related to the identification and direction of different thinking styles and the development of effective communication strategies and creative leadership abilities in order to stimulate and manage creativity in groups of people in organizations; in particular in terms of interfunctional interactions.
