Write to Think opens up human potential, connecting us to our creativity and each other. Through the act of writing we help teams and individuals rediscover their own power to invent, influence and direct.
Write to Think
Create
Be
Designed and led by renowned writers in the fields of fiction, memoir, history, journalism, psychotherapy and education, WTT’s programmes use writing workshops to revive confidence in the contribution we make at work.
The Research
Writing occupies the whole brain. When we write, we observe closely, we plan, imagine, bring ideas from nowhere into existence, create and populate worlds, discard the bad stuff, select and improve the good – and manage the whole process with a mix of openness and control. Every thinking process is engaged (the evidence is here).
Technology can conspire to limit that engagement; AI promises a world where the brain can take a back seat, devising prompts and resting up. But individuals, teams and organisations suffer when the human contribution is diminished or sidelined: confidence and morale weaken, good people are blocked, and a healthy future is sacrificed for immediate advantage. Writing - because it requires the whole brain - can begin to restore the balance.
AI is built on writing. Writing can help us live with and optimise AI.
WTT’s workshops create the time and space to explore each participants’ talents, to encourage trust in imagination and intuition, and to develop a sustained confidence in our own abilities. Our programmes teach practical, memorable techniques to protect and amplify the human contribution to the workplace.

Revealed that we all have the power to use language to translate the things in our minds; too often in professional environments we find ourselves chasing the established language…[you] demonstrated how much power we have individually.
Ofcom
Successfully prompted us to think imaginatively about the organisation’s future

Much more sophisticated and thoughtful than other development sessions.
