Leading Creativity through Public Speaking
What’s the story of your life that you want to create? Maija will be your guide for your journey to find your unique approach to creativity and leadership.
- Do you want to take yourself, your team and your organisation to the next level and want to find tools to do that?
- Are you frustrated that day-to-day creativity and innovation are not championed although they are touted as strategic objectives?
- Do you want to be able to be your authentic self at work and embrace your strengths?
- Do you want to become resilient, innovative and flexible to be able to navigate with inadequate information?
Creativity helps you navigate uncertainty and embrace opportunities. The brave leader of today is compassionate, vulnerable and inclusive.
Maija can support you, your team and your organisation to become the creative drivers of your surrounding. You don’t need to have a leadership title to be a creative leader. You can become an inspiring leader in all areas of your life: work, family, friendships and community.
The CREATE book and ®CREATE model Maija Fast crafted will be the guide for your journey, harnessing your creativity. Maija is an inspirational speaker and storyteller. She is a facilitator of growth and she has the skill of coaxing out the creativity innate all of us.
Maija combines her knowledge and skills from multiple fields in international leadership roles, her creative projects and bringing people together into a creative playfield which is contagious.

Both in her roles as a mother, speaker, gallerist and community activist as well as in her work as a coach and leader, she focuses on listening and supporting. Maija is an enabler of growth, noticing elements within and coaxing out the creativity innate all of us.

Her CREATE framework helps everyone to enhance and explore their own creativity.
I highly recommend Maija as a speaker, especially for businesses that aim to support individuals in adapting to changes or challenging situations, approaching problems from different perspectives, and generating new ideas that can promote positive change.
