From creativity does innovation arise?
Previously I had already talked a little about creativity, but if
you do not remember it, creativity is the ability we have to be able to think
of new methods / possibilities to be able to invent or create something new or
improve something, they can be objects, ideas, representations, etc. So if we
think this about creativity, can we say that innovation comes from creativity?
Well, how many times we have not wanted to create something new but we always
find that it has already been created ?, or that we realize that there are
several similar articles but one is more successful than another? well, there
is a big difference between creativity and innovation.
Creativity is thinking of new and appropriate ideas, while
innovation is the successful application of ideas within an organization. In
other words, creativity is the concept and innovation is the process.Creativity and innovation
Let's determine more about the differences between these two
concepts. According to the RAE, innovation is the creation or modification of a
product, and its introduction into a market, while creativity is the ability to
create, therefore what differs between these two concepts is the approach we
give it, creativity puts us to fund the purpose of unlocking our potential from
our mind to make known the different methods for the realization of something.
It is subjective.
Innovation on the other hand is measurable. It's about changing
stable systems. It focuses on having viable ideas. All this arises since we
want to satisfy some need, therefore creativity can be used to bring some
innovation to our lives.
Clearly all this is not easy, today there are so many things
created or applied that it is very difficult to create or apply something that
has not already been created by other people, but do not worry, there is
everything has its moment and the only thing that one you must do is have the
line of separation between creativity and innovation well marked in order to
make correct use of each one, in the same way there are several ways to promote
creativity and innovation, such as the following:
Ways to encourage or stimulate creativity
- Propose challenges
- To motivate
- Encourage active participation
- Give greater autonomy
- Generate variety, avoiding stagnation.
Ways to practice innovation:
- Foster creativity (which is what generates ideas to innovate)
- Eradicate the fear of failure
- Be attentive to market changes
- Launch new products, services or process changes.
