What Color Is Your Imagination?

By Nadine Owens Burton

What Color Is Your Imagination? was inspired by a conversation with Nadine Owens Burton's then preschool aged son during a car ride home. That four-year-old's question and subsequent declaration about the color of his imagination developed into a lesson on problem-solving for her staff while as a Head Start Director. It has since provided information and inspiration for various other teams. For the past decade plus, Ms. Owens Burton has presented workshops and keynotes based on the theme through her company, Owens Burton Consulting. She is now putting those lessons into a book. The first half of the book begins with a metaphor of the various types of creative and problem solving environments, where these environments are represented by various colors. The ideal is Purple Imagination. The second half gives the reader ten ways to increase one's own creativity and problem solving skills, one's own Purple Imagination.
