Deep dives

Embrace Audacious Thinking

Encouraging audacious thinking is essential for fostering a culture rich in innovative ideas. Instead of sticking to conventional thought processes, teams should explore extreme versions of their ideas or even consider opposites to push the boundaries of creative thinking. This approach, akin to avant-garde fashion shows or concept cars, allows teams to see what’s possible beyond their current constraints, enabling them to break free from arbitrary limits. By creating an environment where there are no sacred cows, leaders can motivate team members to view their ideas as just one contribution in a larger collaborative effort, thus facilitating greater creative exploration.
