1) What was
the biggest surprise for you in the reading? In other words, what did you read
that stood out the most as different from your expectations?
I found it
surprising that there was actually a formula for success, despite what I have
been told all my life. The formula told is: Creative thinking + systematic
analysis= success.
2) Identify
at least one part of the reading that was confusing to you.
I was confused when
the book stated that innovation requires being action oriented. I believe that
you could be innovative when starting from scratch and just experimenting from
the parts given to you, not necessarily to reach a goal.
3) If you
were able to ask two questions to the author, what would you ask? Why?
What exactly
constitutes a milestone schedule and can you elaborate more? How can one define
what they deem as “heroic activity” and how can they be rewarded?
4) Was there
anything you think the author was wrong about? Where do you disagree with what
she or he said? How?
I disagree with the
way the book defined creativity. They stated that that creativity has two
aspects, one being “process” and one being “people”. They described “process”
as goal oriented. However, I believe that creativity does not have to be goal
driven. Sometimes you find answers to other questions through trial and error,
not necessarily the answer to your own question.
