Creativity and Innovation
Definition of Creativity•creativity is manifested in the production of a creative work (for example, a new work of art or a scientific hypothesis) that is both original and useful •innovation begins with creative ideas,– creativity by individuals and teams is a
starting point for innovation; the first is a necessary but not sufficient condition for the second

creativity results:– in producing or bringing about
something partly or wholly new; – in investing an existing object with new
properties or characteristics; – in imagining new possibilities that were
not conceived of before; – and in seeing or performing something
in a manner different from what was thought possible or normal previously.

Creativity and InnovationCreative process•Problem Definition - including problem analysis, redefinition, and all aspects associated with defining the problem clearly. •Idea Generation - The divergent process of coming up with ideas. •Idea Selection - The convergent process of reducing all the many ideas into realistic solutions •Idea Implementation - Turning the refined ideas in reality.
– Processes - Schemes and techniques which look at the overall process from start to finish (or at least 3 of the above 4 areas)..

Concept of Creativity
BASIC CONCEPTS•Creative thinking represents a combination of logic and intuitive approaches •Being creative means dealing with the aspects and possibilities of today and tomorrow•That requires a person to be open to everything new, do not stick to things that we are all used to, do not adhere to yesterday so much•Creativity does not mean dreaming, it means productive managing of specific tasks.•Only a creative approach to the problem solution can be successful.

Application of Creativity
Creativity in organizations•Amabile: to enhance creativity in business, three components are needed:– Expertise (technical, procedural & intellectual
knowledge), – Creative thinking skills (how flexibly and
imaginatively people approach problems), – and Motivation (especially intrinsic motivation).
•Nonaka: creativity and knowledge creation are important to the success of organizations. In particular, he emphasized the role that tacit knowledge has to play in the creative process.
![Page 13: Chapter 4 Creativity and Teamwork. Preface Big things are from small beginning --humanoid, Prometheus.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649ead5503460f94bb462c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Application of CreativityBarriers to creativity - 1• The value of getting things right time can
induce a fear of mistakes and experimentation. • So can a blame culture where people
become afraid of making mistakes. • Managers who are not as secure as they
should be can resist or block ideas that are not their own or which they see as threatening. • A culture that over emphasizes cost
containment, processes, consistency or efficiency.
![Page 14: Chapter 4 Creativity and Teamwork. Preface Big things are from small beginning --humanoid, Prometheus.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649ead5503460f94bb462c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Barriers to creativity - 2• A lack of explicit funding for
experimentation. • A strict requirement to demonstrate
the value of an idea before it has a chance to prove itself. • A tendency to shoot down novel ideas
as a way of scoring points. • An over allegiance to past successes,
proven experience and tried and tested methods.
Application of Creativity
![Page 15: Chapter 4 Creativity and Teamwork. Preface Big things are from small beginning --humanoid, Prometheus.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649ead5503460f94bb462c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Application of CreativityCREATIVITY STIMULATION • Keep in touch with creative people • Accommodate the effort to the targets • Evaluate and appreciate the effort• Protect creative employees• Leave them peace and time• Provide them with security • Tolerate failures • Maintain creative atmosphere • Evaluate the creative ideas quickly • Be persistent - nothing comes for free
![Page 16: Chapter 4 Creativity and Teamwork. Preface Big things are from small beginning --humanoid, Prometheus.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649ead5503460f94bb462c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Application of CreativityFostering creativity •Establishing purpose and intention •Building basic skills •Encouraging acquisitions of domain-specific knowledge •Stimulating and rewarding curiosity and exploration •Building motivation, especially internal motivation

Application of Creativity
METHODS OF CREATIVE ACTIVITY •increasing the individual’s or team’s creative potential•contributing to the improvement of the creative work conditions•facilitating the problem solution

Thinking
Convergent vs. divergent thinking•Convergent thinking involves aiming for a single, correct solution to a problem•Divergent thinking involves creative generation of multiple answers to a set problem.

CREATIVITY TECHNIQUES• trial and error• brainstorming• Inspirational questions • psychological-cognitive, such as:
• Osborn-Parnes Creative problem solving (CPS)• Synectics; • Lateral thinking (courtesy of Edward de Bono),
• the highly-structured, such as:• TRIZ (the Theory of Inventive Problem-Solving); • ARIZ (the Algorithm of Inventive Problem-Solving),
both developed by the Russian scientist Genrich Altshuller; and
• Computer-Aided Morphological analysis.

ThinkingInspirational questions•What can I substitute to make an improvement? •What if I swap this for that and see what happens? •How can I substitute the place, time, materials or people? •What materials, features, processes, people, products or components can I combine? •Where can I build synergy?

Thinking Method
CPS (OFPISA)•six stage process, each with a divergent and a convergent phase.
1.Objective Finding (or Mess Finding):2.Fact Finding: 3.Problem Finding: 4.Idea Finding:5.Solution finding:6.Acceptance finding:

Thinking Method
Synectics•problem solving approach that stimulates thought processes of which the subject is generally unaware. •developed by William Gordon, •central principle: "Trust things that are alien, and alienate things that are trusted." •Encourages•fundamental problem-analysis and, on the other hand,

Thinking MethodLateral thinking•de Bono•changing concepts and perception-- not be obtainable by using only traditional step-by-step logic •shifting of thinking patterns--new or unexpected ideas. •solve some problems by designing the way forward•http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_thinking
![Page 27: Chapter 4 Creativity and Teamwork. Preface Big things are from small beginning --humanoid, Prometheus.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649ead5503460f94bb462c/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Thinking Method
Lateral thinking vs. critical thinking •Critical thinking is primarily concerned with judging the truth value of statements and seeking errors.
•Lateral thinking is more concerned with the movement value of statements and ideas. A person would use lateral thinking when they want to move from one known idea to creating new ideas. •Critical thinking is like a post-mortem while lateral thinking is like diagnosis.
