Brainstorming Rules: What TO DO and What NOT TO DO..

Resim
These two short videos are priceless! They were created by students at the Stanford Design Institute. The first oneshows how NOT to brainstorm and the second one shows HOW to do it effectively. They picked a fanciful problem to solve - saving your chewing gum when you go to class. The worst case example happens all the time. In fact, I was at a meeting last week with people with whom I don't normally work, and we were "brainstorming" about a new program. One person made a suggestion, and someone else literally responded with, "Go shoot yourself." For anyone who has spent any time polishing their brainstorming skills, they know that the FIRST rule is to defer judgment. This was a great, real life example of how NOT to do it. Here is a video summary of what NOT to do: Here is a video summary of what TO DO: IN SUMMARY: - Defer judgment - Capture all the ideas - Encourage wild ideas - One conversation at a time - Build on other p

Different types of entrepreneurship

Creative Destruction & Process Renewal

Dynamic capitalism  is the process of wealth creation characterized by the dynamics of new, creative firms forming and growing and old, large firms declining and failing. In this model, it is disequilibrium - the disruption of existing markets by new entries - that makes capitalism lead to wealth creation (Kirchhoff, 1994) Creative Destruction incessantly revolutionizes the economic structure from within, destroying the old structure and creating a new one. - The profit of the new firms is the key to economic growth and progress. By introducing a new and valuable product, the innovator obtains temporary monopoly power until rivals figure out how to mimic the innovation. The forces of entrepreneurship, competition, and globalization have encouraged new technologies and business methods that raise efficiency and efficacy. The business system works to drive out inefficiency and forces business process renewal.

Entrepreneurship - Think Different

Resim
“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

  Model Leader Behavior:  Invictus film scene Nelson Mandela invites the rugby team captain Mr. François Pinard. At 0.14, Mr. Mandela thanks captain for his visit and then firstly, he asked the captains ankle injury. Although they never met before, Mandela gives close attention to his guest. Then, at 0.46 Mandela’s maid entered the room for tea servce. As you see, Mandela gives great interest all the persons around him. He introduced Mrs. Britz to Mr. Pinard, then gives thank for the service. We can give these as examples of key characteristics of charismatic leader:  the sensivity to follower needs. Then, Mandela changes the subject, he was trying to create link with Mr. Pinard. While he poured teas, he said that, the English culture bringt South-Africa many beautiful things such as rugby, but the tea is the best thing that they bringt from the culture. I think this shows the characteristics of  unconventional behavior and vision artuculation. Moreover, at 1.42 he s
