What does it mean to be creative? According to the author Alberto Dell'Isola, for most people, creativity is an innate thing: a gift that one is born with and that is developed naturally. That is why people who don't this gift can't develop it.
However, in Alberto's view, creativity is a potential developed by us when we work on the creation of new things.
Some concepts of creativity presented in the book "Bright Minds" are:
The author Alberto Dell'Isola devotes, in this part of the book "Bright Minds", a special space to talk about the great creative minds that preceded us.
Voltaire, Michelangelo, Kepler, Pascal, Descartes, J. Sebastian Bach, Darwin, Steve Jobs, Portinari, Chico Buarque, Niemeyer, Albert Einstein... What do all these geniuses have in common?
Creativity! And how can we learn from them?
The author points out that the life and work of Antoine Lavoisier, a French chemist from the 18th century, is a great example of creativity.
In his universally known quote:
"In nature nothing is created, nothing is lost, everything changes."
Lavoisier shows us that creativity comes from preexisting materials. Nothing is created out of emptiness.
Thus, as noted by Alberto Dell'Isola, the chemist teaches us that creation is only possible if there is something on which to "base, deepen and scrutinize".
According to him, bright minds:
"Diapers for mice? [...] Very small mice diapers [...] Each box will come with twelve units [...] Pre-folded and disposable diapers [...] Equipped with feline repellent. It is certainly an excellent idea! We will be rich!!!"
It is with this dialogue of a brainstorming session at the company Hewlett-Packard (HP) that the author addresses the subject.
According to Alberto Dell'Isola, this dialogue at HP had no real intention of launching diapers for mice. The goal was to keep the group lively and creative, creating more innovations for the company.
As he affirms in the book "Bright Minds", brainstorming is the most powerful tool for developing creativity. During it, no idea is dismissed or judged as wrong or absurd. All are heard and written down.
After bringing the ideas, you can work on each one of them until you find an effective solution.
Some examples of the application of the technique are:
Also, the author Alberto Dell'Isola emphasizes that it is possible to use brainstorm for countless things, such as process management and team building, for example.
The author Austin Kleon, in the book "Steal Like an Artist", tells how you can do something authentic based on the ideas of those who inspire you. You can stimulate your creativity by leaving your comfort zone and surrounding yourself with people who support and contribute to your creative process.
In the book "Mindset", by the psychologist Carol S. Dweck, it is debated how our beliefs shape our behavior and growth. Human beings can be taught to react in different ways, how to face challenges, and think differently.
At last, in the book "Disrupt You!", Jay Samit says that innovative ideas have the power to transform the world and disrupt the system. To develop a disruptive profile, you need to plan your goals and be susceptible to both internal and external changes.
