Creativity
Get flash to fully experience Pearltrees
Berkeley en Californie, vous l'aurez compris, berceau de la contestation américaine dans les années 60, ville aux mille contre-révolutions... Je suis à la rencontre C2-MTL sur la créativité et le commerce et c'est moi qui tiens à échanger sur Montréal et sur le mouvement étudiant avec quelques participants, parce que contrairement à ce qui se discute dans à peu près tous les autres salons de Montréal, le sujet du jour n'y est pas du tout la fronde du moment. Arianna Huffington du Huffington Post, Michael Eisner ex-PDG de Walt Disney, le cinéaste Francis Ford Coppola et autres célébrités viennent de défiler au micro ou s'apprêtent à le faire pour parler plutôt de comment ils ont su traduire la créativité en occasion d'affaires.

Polaroid and Apple: Innovation Through Mental Invention
Steve Jobs admits to few idols. But one is Edwin Land, the college dropout who invented the polarizing filters used in everything from car headlights to sunglasses. Land, of course, also invented the Polaroid Land Camera. It happened like this: One time when Land and his three-year-old daughter were in New Mexico, she asked why she couldn't immediately see a photograph that he had snapped. He took a short walk through the desert, pondering that question. By the time he had returned (and it was no more than an hour, he recalled), he had visualized the elements of the instant camera.
David Kelley on Designing Curious Employees
Design thinking is a process of empathizing with the end user. Its principal guru is David Kelley, founder of IDEO and the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design at Stanford (otherwise known as the d.school), who takes a similar approach to managing people. He believes leadership is a matter of empathizing with employees. In this interview, he explains why leaders should seek understanding rather than blind obedience, why it's better to be a coach and a taskmaster and why you can't teach leadership with a PowerPoint presentation.
