3. Key Lessons In Using These Tools
Book Abstract
Main Idea
To survive and to aspire to succeed in the competitive business environment of the twenty-first century, you need to be capable of generating an ongoing stream of creative new ideas. Therefore, it stands to reason that if you fail to make a concerted effort to enhance your creative thinking skills, you automatically give a sustainable advantage to your competitors.
So how do you learn how to think creatively? The human mind is the most powerful tool in the world, but sometimes it gets too bogged down with facts and knowledge that it’s unable to do what it really excels at – generating fresh, new and original ideas. Thus, to think creatively, you have to be willing to let go of what you already know. In other words, you have to figuratively perform a do-it-yourself lobotomy to get rid of what you currently known to make room for the fresh ideas that will become tomorrow’s knowledge and accepted business practices.
By doing just such a lobotomy:
You position yourself and your organization to generate the fresh new ideas that will underpin the success stories of the future.
You can generate the business-building ideas which will fuel your future growth.
You can come up with the breakthroughs and fresh ideas that create buzz.
Your organization can improve itself in every area of importance.
You get ahead of the curve – introducing cutting edge products and services rather than me too
offerings.
You can act quickly to commercially exploit your creative ideas before competitors become aware.
You actually become a leader in your field.
