TREND: The recognition that creativity increases productivity, and should be nurtured and protected as much as possible.
The first time I really stopped to consider the impact that nurturing creativity has on an individual or organization, I was being totally inspired by Randy Pausch’s The Last Lecture. (For those who have not yet watched it, please do. Words cannot describe the value I have personally gotten from hearing about this dying man’s attitude and the way he lived his life.) In short, Randy Pausch’s parents let him draw on his walls as a kid which not only inspired him, but more importantly set a tone for the attitude with which he achieved almost all of his childhood dreams later in life.
Taken a step further, I began to research the ways in which companies foster a creative environment for their talent. Incase and Pixar are two companies that I really admire for their consistent innovation and cleverness. Take a look at how they create an office environment that nurtures creative talent.
The question then becomes: Why are the offices of most fashion companies so stuffy and rigid??
