- Handling Ambiguity

- Contrarianism


Which of these people is the most creative?


Ideation
The word after Innovation, transformation.


Ideation
Everyone can be creative,
yes even accountants can use a notebook.

Visual,
isn’t that what artists do?

Like what?
metaphor this and simile that

Physical things,
make the intangible, tangible

Disciplines v capacities,
inspire me, please


Is this equal to a larger candle?

Fluid intelligence
Fluid like ice or water?


Fluid Intelligence
Generalists,
not specialists

Curious minds,
are easily distracted by shiny objects.

Problems solvers,
passion has a dark side to manage.

Breaking the rules,
like criminals with a “get out of jail free” card.

Young minds,
uncluttered and curious at any real age.

Handling Ambiguity
When was the last time someone you know used the word innovation?


Handling Ambiguity
Picture this,
what did you mean by that word?

Be uncomfortable,
discard the security blanket.

Boundaries are good,
unless you stay within them?

Clarity in time,
doesn’t mean clarity now but certainly soon.

It means something,
as there are opportunities to create clarity.


Boundaries are good,
unless you stay within them.


Discerning Patterns
Did you see it or observe it?


Discerning Patterns
What’s here, easy;
seeing what’s missing is the trick.

Intuition intelligence
High IQs may not always apply.

Four eyeballs or,
never less than two intuitive observers.

Out of context,
and you are out of oxygen.


HOW DO WE DO IT RIGHT?


Contrarianism
Are you a virus or just an occasion cold?


Contrarianism
Saying it, okay;
put it into behaviors and now you’re fired.

Be a champion,
for something worth championing.

Do you just believe,
or is it something else?

Caring for your words,
support them visually and use them deliberately


Do you just believe,
or is it something else?
