We believe everyone can be creative

At Now Go Create, we help people and organisations think differently, solve problems and come up with better ideas. We see creativity as a skill you can build, rather than a talent you are born with.

With the right tools and practice, anyone can grow their creative confidence. Our creativity training is practical and engaging – people leave with creative thinking they can use at work straight away.

What we believe

Everyone can be creative

You don’t need the word “creative” in your job title to have good ideas. With the right environment, tools and encouragement, anyone can improve their creative thinking.

Good ideas need a process

Creativity is about more than waiting for inspiration. A clear creative process often beats a sudden flash of genius, and simple frameworks help people move past the obvious answers.

Ideas need to be useful

Lots of ideas is only part of the job. Strong thinking means challenging and improving an idea until it works – that’s where idea development and creative problem solving come in.

Learning should be practical

People should leave knowing exactly how to use what they’ve learned. We focus on memorable tools for meetings, projects and planning that become part of everyday work.

Different perspectives matter

Teams produce stronger ideas when people feel safe to share different views. A quieter colleague or someone from another department may spot what others miss.

What we help with

We work with individuals, leaders and teams to build stronger creative skills. Whether you face a specific problem or want stronger creative thinking across the business, our training covers six main areas.

Boutique by design. Big on results.

Big-brand and global-agency experience – from Netflix and the UN to WPP – delivered with the care, speed and personal attention of a boutique.

We know how big organisations really work: the briefs, the politics, the deadlines and the pressure to deliver. Claire ran a division of a global WPP PR agency and led creativity across a 100+ strong agency. But we’ve chosen to stay boutique. That means you work directly with the people who design and deliver your training – no account handlers, no junior trainers reading from a script, no one-size-fits-all content.

Meet Claire Bridges, founder of Now Go Create

Claire founded Now Go Create in 2011, after almost two decades in PR and agency life. She was divisional Managing Director at a global WPP PR agency, and one of the first female Creative Directors in PR, at Cohn & Wolfe – responsible for creativity across a 100+ strong agency.

Yet, despite being labelled “creative”, she realised she didn’t know any formal techniques. That gap led to a simple question: can people learn to be more creative? To find out, she completed an MSc in Innovation, Creativity and Leadership at City, University of London. Her research became In Your Creative Element (Kogan Page, 2016), shortlisted for Management Book of the Year.

Since 2012, Claire has co-authored the annual Creativity in PR study with PRovoke Media. She served on the Cannes Lions PR Jury in 2014, coaches Young Lions teams and hosts the Now Go Create podcast. In 2025, she won both the Independent Impact 50 and WIPR 40 Over 40.

Helping people think more creatively

As creativity training experts, we’ve spent years learning what helps people think well, what gets in the way, and how teams create better ideas together. Our approach combines practical creative thinking techniques, behavioural science and real business experience. We avoid complicated theory and focus on tools people can take back to work and use the next day.

Why creative capability matters. The World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Report 2025 ranks creative thinking among the skills rising most in importance to 2030. McKinsey found that 67% of the most creative companies had above-average organic revenue growth. That’s why we focus on building creative capability as a lasting skill across teams – not a one-off boost.

Training that people can actually use

A workshop is only useful if people remember what they learned and use it afterwards. Before any session, we take time to understand your team, your challenge and what you want to achieve – then tailor the content to fit.

Choose face-to-face workshops, online creativity training for remote and hybrid teams, longer programmes, one-to-one coaching or self-paced learning. Whatever the format, people leave with more confidence and better tools.

Training that gets results

Our clients range from global brands and media companies to agencies and growing businesses – including Netflix, BBC Studios, M&S, Kenwood and Fremantle. And the results last.

Creativity works better together

Good ideas rarely come from one person working alone. They grow from a mix of experiences, opinions and ways of looking at a problem – which is why creative collaboration sits at the heart of how we work.

Boutique doesn’t mean small-scale. Alongside Claire, Now Go Create draws on a network of specialists, including strategists, creative directors, coaches and facilitators. For each project, we assemble the right people, so your team gets an approach built around them.

Pushed the team to think differently. The Creative Ninjas workshop was fun, informative, challenging and engaging - in all the right ways. Everyone came away feeling inspired.

White Stuff (White)

Thank you very much for today’s presentation skills workshop – it was really engaging and thoughtful too. I’m genuinely looking forward to trialing some of the new tools and techniques over the next few weeks; I just hope we don’t all bring tears to our audiences’ eyes every time we present!

Director,

Fremantle (White)

The creative bootcamp week was amazing! Covering interesting and practical tools, speakers and inspiration. It has really helped me to think differently.

Ops Director,
Creative, Fremantle

Absolutely the best course ever I have attended – the creative thinking techniques I learned have changed my beliefs.

Ops Director,
Pret A Manger

Thank you, it was awesome! Applied creativity for business tools, not theoretical, a real toolkit, opportunity and fun to practice. 10/10!

Lee Rand,
President, Research Agency

I was so inspired by the ‘How to be a Creative Ninja’ training that we set up workshops for the whole agency. Claire is brilliant at demystifying the idea that ‘creativity’ is some kind of dark art or innate talent only possessed by few. Her training session was lively, engaging and, most importantly gave us practical tools that are proven to stimulate creativity and the confidence to believe that we can all be creative. What’s more, because the tools and techniques Claire gave us are simple and fun we are using them for creative sessions 5 years later.

Creative Director, Fever PR
