CONCEPTUAL SYMBOL: CATS The Nine Lives of Innovation

Dilip Mukerjea has created the foregoing composite conceptual symbol, which captures his powerful generalisation of the four obstacles that limit creativity in all kinds of organisational environments, as well as the nine techniques for overcoming those obstacles, as embodied in the new book, 'CATS: The Nine Lives of Innovation', by Dr Stephen Lundin.

In an earlier post, Dilip has done a beautiful Splash Map of the book, which is recapitulated below:

SPLASH MAP ON 'CATS'

Here's another beautiful SPLASH MAP from Dilip Mukerjea.

With it, he has captured the salient learning points from the book, 'CATS: The Nine Lives of Innovation', by Stephen Lundin, co-author of the bestselling Fish! series.

CATS & YOUR POWER OF INNOVATION, VISUALLY SPEAKING

I told Dilip Mukerjea just a few days ago about the new book by Dr Stephen Lundin, entitled 'CATS: The Nine Lives of Innovation'. Dr Lundin is co-author of the bestselling Fish! series of business titles.

Last night, with the aid of his repertoire of Adobe softwares, Dilip has created a wonderful map of the key ideas from the book as shown above.

Personally, I have yet to read the book, but I have read several articles on the net [Readers can go to this link to read &/or download one of them] about the topic.

Nonetheless, in a nut shell, the author delineates four obstacles that limit creativity in all kinds of environments:

- negative feedback;
- habit;
- fear; &
- failure of leadership;

He then describes nine techniques for overcoming those obstacles, which include organizing, understanding creativity & the power of provocation.
