CREATIVITY
Background:
The entrepreneurial success stories
in this chapter are about people who
used their creative abilities to develop
innovative products or ways of doing
something that became the basis of a
new business. Of course, being creative is
not just for entrepreneurs or inventors; creativity is an
important tool to help you find the optimal solutions to the
problems you face on a daily basis. Employees rely heavily
on their creativity skills to help them solve daily workplace
problems. According to brain experts, the right-brain hemisphere
is the source of creative thinking; and the creative
part of the brain can "atrophy" from lack of use. Let's
see how much "exercise" you're giving your right-brain
hemisphere. Task:| 1. | Take the following self-test to check your Creativity Quotient. | | 2. | Write the appropriate number in the box next to each statement according to whether the statement describes your behavior always (3), sometimes (2), once in a while (1), or never (0). |
