•    How to increase your personal capacity for idea generation, creative thinking, and problem solving
•    Your own barriers and preferences regarding innovation
•    Ways to develop ideas and solutions when working in a group 
•    Techniques for crowdsourcing idea generation or problem solving
•    Things you can do to help foster a culture of innovation within your library, even if you are not in a leadership position
