​For nearly 40 years, Sujata Taterh has asked one question: how do we help every child, and every adult, discover the creativity already within them?

​

A Life in Education

Sujata spent 18 years as a school Principal in CBSE, Maharashtra Board and UP Board schools, followed by 10 years as Advisor at Springdales Children’s School, Kota. As a CBSE Resource Person and Master Trainer, she has trained thousands of teachers and school leaders across India. She holds a BA (Hons) and an MA in English, a B.Ed. and a PGDTE from CIEFL, Hyderabad.

When teachers and principals kept asking her how to develop creativity in students, she realised she didn’t know the answer. That question led to years of research, including a deep study of Harvard’s Project Zero, and to her own ORIGIN Method for nurturing creativity at home and in the classroom.

​

The Author

Sujata is the author of six Amazon bestselling books, in fiction and non-fiction.

​

The Creativity Series offers practical guidance for educators, parents and professionals:

• The Power of Creativity in Education: Proven Strategies to Transform Young Minds

• The Power of Creativity in Raising Smart Kids: How to Foster Curiosity, Innovation and Problem-Solving, which introduces her 5C Formula for Creative Growth

• The Creativity Habit: 21 Days to a Creative You, part of a World Book of Records and Asia Book of Records entry

A fourth book in the series, The Creative Leader, is coming soon.

​

The Destinies Series brings her love of storytelling to fiction. Her debut novel, Entangled Destinies: Search for Love, Truth and Joy, is a murder mystery infused with spiritual and social themes, set against the sacred ghats of Varanasi. She has also published its Hindi edition, Anjaane Rishte, Anjaane Safar, and recorded the audiobook in her own voice. Its sequel, Entangled Destinies: Secrets of the Devi Protocol, is a psychological thriller about memory and identity.

​

Speaker and Mentor

Sujata has spoken at TEDx (Orbis School, Pune, 2024) on redefining age, and at the New Delhi World Book Fair 2025 as a speaker and moderator. She will return to the World Book Fair in January 2027 as a panel speaker. Through her free masterclass and the Raise a Creative Child online programme, she now helps parents nurture creativity in their children every day.
