Innovation and Creativity

A short but positive post today.

Here's a list of links (mostly blog posts) on creativity and innovation I found interesting:

• Google’s own variation of the 80/20 rule
• Definition of creativity
• Different ways of thinking
• Outside the box thinking
• Nine things that encourage creativity
• Slowing down (if this topic interests you, I also enjoyed this book)
• Tool for fostering innovation
• Innovation starts with "i"
• Future Leaders Forum: thoughts of participants
• Why innovation is tough

Finally a came across this fantastic TED presentation entitled "Institutions versus collaborations". Like the best presentations showcased at TED, this one offers an enlightening spin on a somewhat familiar topic, but the ramifications go way beyond what we might think.

I have also added a little feature in the side-bar of the blog where I list my favourite TED presentations. Scroll down and check it out!
