Ida Byrd-Hill provides FREE Idea Generation KINDLE Book

Dec. 3, 2012 - PRLog -- Can your employer grow without innovation? No business can. For this reason, every man, woman and child must learn to become master idea generators. Idea generation is creativity, imagination, and  invention to solve a problem. While everyone has the ability to be creative, idea generation is a learned skill as the most difficult part of the process is pushing beyond negative thoughts of practicality to decide what is plausible.

In the 21st Century, everything is plausible. A quote from the A Connecting Innovation to Profit study conducted by Ernst,  “We assume that 50 per cent of our revenue in five years’ time must come from sources that do not exist today. That is why we innovate.” Innovation is defined as profitable inventions, mathematically represented as INNOVATION = INVENTIONS + PROFITS TM. Inventions are an act or instance of creating or producing by exercise of the imagination.  No one can predict which invention will be profitable. It is a gamble at best. The only way to win is to invent and keep inventing. Inventions begin as simple ideas.

Ida Byrd-Hill is giving away FREE Kindle copies of  “How to Generate Ideas with Breeze & Ease”  Sunday, December 2 thru December 4, 2012.  

The Boston Consulting Group Strategy Survey continually finds that creativity and innovation are strategic imperatives  for the 21st century.  Survey after survey confirms this. According to the 2009 Everyday Innovation Survey that found every job in every industry requires creativity. A Connecting Innovation to Profit study conducted by Ernst and Young has found that creative thinking skills are “directly linked to growth and achievement” and an IBM survey of CEOs has found that creativity is considered a more important leadership skill than integrity or vision.

Creativity/ Innovation  is the  leading skill out of the four skills for the 21st Century, affectionately referred to as the “Four C’s”. The others are Communication, Collaboration, and Critical Thinking. The sad irony, neither schools or corporations have the time or resource to teach the “four C’s internally. “ In the training industry, outsourcing is absolutely necessary to be successful,” said Josh Bersin, CEO and president of research firm Bersin & Associates.
