Individual Study of the Nature of Creativity and Innovation

Assessment Task 1:

 

Individual Study of the Nature of Creativity and Innovation

 

·        Individual Essay - Analysis of personal and organizational styles and assessment of strategies for creative thinking and innovation

 

·        Due Date            Class/Week/Module 6 (Day 3 in 5-Day Block Mode format)   

 

·        Weight                      30%

 

·        Length                      ~2500 words

 

 

1)       Assessment Details  

 

Each student is to submit a written assignment, based on an exploration of the nature of creativity and innovation, how these are defined, what academics and others say about them, and what their own experiences are.  The topic will relate to the theory and practice of creativity and innovation in an organizational setting and will require participants to research the current body of knowledge in the area, assess how this might impact their role in an organization, and present a case based on their research.  

 

To help you focus this, aim to identify examples of people and/or organisations whose success was/is based on creative thinking and innovation, and what they did to achieve their success with innovation.  Look to identify the key ingredients to successful innovation – Leadership, Focus, Creativity, Invention, and Entrepreneurship.  Try to find people and organisations that are ‘less well known’ than the usual examples, such as Apple, Google, Uber, etc.  The aim is to learn how to ‘spot’ innovation in action all around you, so focus in your own industry, field, country, or area of interest to find your examples.

The assignment report should be a document of about 2500 words plus an Executive Summary, Mind Map, and Attachments as needed. Please also include a short personal reflection on what you learnt by doing this assignment, and how you might apply the insights gained.
