Brilliant Management: Combining Individual Creativity To Collective Wisdom

I take pride to be an observing adviser of the sparkling brilliance turning into creative outlook for both society and business. Most people admire this phenomenon of such transformation of ideas. What Steve Jobs, Amadeus Mozart, Claude Monet or Isaac Newton have done for the world are beyond what most of us know how to comprehend. So we try to find....

How does such inspired thought find its way into the mind of one humble individual?

Is it something that is uncommon?

And most importantly, how can I be the vehicle or channel for that rare occurrence? How fine would it be to be recognized as such a genius?

The truth is, the mystery is not that mysterious at all. Personality theory and studies on teamwork have shown that some pretty simple practices can be used to create ingenuity more often and by more people.

Simply because renowned people like Jobs, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg have been successful, it does not mean that brainy ideas come only from people like them. These people of repute have permitted their minds to think along with their intelligence and develop inspiration.

Successful strategies emerge from deep analysis of the right information. It is evident from recent studies that managerial effectiveness was more because of the individual's deep insight followed by the loud thinking and debate of the groups.

Anyone can independently come with some innovative ideas by listening to basic beliefs and thoughts. That is, anyone can allow the flow of creativity to enter their life when they choose.

The key is to raise your individual filter of importance. You must consciously open up your mind to wide range of things so that you can choose the ones that will be motivate your creativity.

Each of us does this more often than we realize. Although we usually get many brilliant ideas, we are invariably not able to implement for want of required resources, funds and the time.

Three Important Steps to Brilliant Management

You will certainly be recognized for a viable and brilliant solution in your company soon. Here are three critical steps you can take now to become more individually brilliant in your day to day:

1. Make time for personal reflection: This week is a crazy week for me. I took a flight to Montreal on Sunday. I had my dinner and held a meeting in the evening that was hectic as if it was a 3 day session because I had to be attentive right through. In the evening I ate meals and socialized with my colleagues. When I finally got back to my room I washed up, prepared for bed, and lay down to read my book.

When I go back home at night, I will spend some pleasant time with family, feed my pets at home, check my emails and carry out other routine tasks. The rest of this week will seem like much of the same.

Personal reflection in today's day and age, and in North American society, is most often an afterthought. Neither the people practice nor do they educate their children because many of them do not believe in the benefits of mediation or yoga.

Allocating adequate time to personal reflection is essential to make the creativity in you to come up, since this is the only way to success to move to next stage in the process.

2. Clear Your Mind: Like a form of meditation, mind-clearing involves making space in your mind for strokes of brilliance to shine through. It actually amounts to stop you mind from wavering thoughts for at least 3 minutes.

This is hard. Hardly, you can do it for just 5 seconds.

Our minds are wired to "think" involuntarily whether we like it or not . Instead, it can be made to prepare for staying with the current thoughts.

It really does the cleaning of the mind from any thoughts of the past or the future. It means becoming aware of what your breathing sounds like, here and now. Close your eyes. Become aware of what you are sitting on, who is near you, and what sounds are occurring in your present moment. Become aware of the feel of your clothes, and the temperature in the room.

Staying present means that when your thoughts temporarily shift to wanting to adjust the thermostat, you come back into focus on what is happening now, staying away from what might happen in that most immediate future.

When you remove all the thoughts about the past or future, you will make more room. 3-5 minutes of this is sometimes all that is needed.

3. Listen to your fleeting thoughts and inklings: As you clear your mind, you will have moments of past or future thought. These will give a pleasant feeling. You are now ready for creative thinking. Just remember to come back to present in those critical 3-5 minutes.

All that you need to is enthusiastically.
