I would agree if the only goal was to reinvigorate people who were creative to begin with.
However, my concerns lie with the majority who aren't creative because they weren't taught this at home or by the school system when this is becoming more and more important in an economy that is difficult to find a job. It's difficult to teach anyone to be creative past the time they graduate college. They become too set in whatever ideology they believe in.
- ed209 13y agoEveryone has the ability to be creative. Being creative has been part of human history for thousands of years. The problem is more often that people aren't empowered to think creatively. You often get handed a set of tasks to complete or instructions to follow. Some people naturally break out of this and follow their own path to accomplish the task. That's why it's so important for managers to watch this and understand they need to create an environment where people can get into the "open" mode as John puts it. I agree that throughout life and education we've been taught to think and act within certain parameters, that's why I love this video so much, it actually gives ideas on how to create an environment that fosters creativity.
