#10 Creativity

Great bands create magical moments.

Great leaders create a firm work structure, while leaving a lot of room for teams to exercise creativity at work.

Increasingly as an individual and as a team, we need creativity to solve problems, integrate, improvise, optimise for better results. Creativity in the form of Leadership as well as Team Agility is a great skill to possess as we navigate through tough markets, staff turnovers and ever-changing markets.

“The things we fear most in organizations – fluctuations, disturbances, imbalances – are the primary sources of creativity.” – Margaret J. Wheatley,

Great teams know how to use creative imagination or own ideas to dream new possible connections. They use creativity to proactively solve problems, where there seems to be no visible solution. Many times, new differentiated products and services are created just by adding or changing certain original components. In music, we are well aware the power of improvisation. It’s amazing what 12 unique notes on the piano can create the world’s songs. Learning from musicians, sometimes when you improvise for better results as a team, that can bring about exponential results for the team.
