TY - THES AU - Bugarcheva, Mariya T1 - The Creative Platform T4 - a source for creating innovative solutions to regional development in Davos/Klosters DA - 2017 CY - Chur PB - Hochschule für Technik und Wirtschaft HTW Chur A3 - Voll, Frieder AB - The purpose of the Master Thesis was to introduce a new creativity tool in the Swiss regional development sphere and build awareness for the tool. To answer the research question an action research approach was taken. This thesis has chosen to implement the Creative Platform as a workshop for finding creative solution to a problem and finding possible courses of action to implement that idea to the regional development strategy of Davos and Klosters. The Platform could not reach its full potential, but has used all available resources in best way possible. However, the participants of the workshop have rated the experience satisfying and very interesting, which means that the Creative Platform has caused some effect on their creativity. Furthermore, two creative ideas have emerged from the workshop, one of which was chosen for implementation. A Multi-stakeholder approach to tourism development has been presented as a recommendation and implemented through 6 courses of action. M3 - Masterarbeit Tourism M4 - Citavi ER -
