Thanks for your comment Tom. I’ll bet if Mercedes was your client, you would have influenced them to make a better connection.

Swell idea, as it was when Barry Vetere and I did it for SAAB in 1980.
Difference was we clearly drew the connection between the visual side (the picture of the car) and
the verbal side (body copy on the right side of the page).
The Mercedes team here is either unwilling or unable to draw the connection.

Hi Linda,

What a great post! The Mobley concepts and your reflections on creativity got me thinking about how I can promote creativity in my own training designs in the field. As I read your post, I found myself wondering about the applications of this idea to an organizational culture that is (for lack of a better term) “anti-creativity”. What do you think would be the best way to introduce creativity training into an organization with this type of environment?

Thanks,

Creativity is not inborn, so the simple answer is to just work at it. Read a lot of creative works, and attempt different approaches to writing. Don’t try to imitate anything though, just write naturally.

Some companies use brsinatorming sessions. People sit at a round table and throw out ideas while 1 person writes them down. They do not criticize or comment on the ideas during the session, just keep them coming and sort it out later.
