The
world
of
work
is
changing
rapidly
and
with
it
,
the
skills
needed
to
succeed
.
We
focus
on
some
tips
to
help
you
develop
creative
thinking
.
There
are
certain
jobs
?
like
accounting
and
law
?
where
logical
,
analytical
thinking
is
a
great
asset
.
Similarly
,
where
one
is
trying
to
solve
a
problem
that
you
have
encountered
before
,
then
this
approach
is
invaluable
.
Tried
and
tested
solutions
work
well
in
these
situations
.
However
,
when
you
encounter
a
new
problem
or
when
the
circumstances
change
,
as
they
seem
to
do
now
with
ever
increasing
frequency
,
then
such
an
approach
can
be
unhelpful
.
This
is
when
creative
or
thinking
takes
the
biscuit
.
In
these
situations
,
it's
not
about
following
rules
,
procedures
,
or
;
but
rather
finding
the
,
that
leap
into
the
unknown
,
the
idea
that
.
In
the
new
book
Elastic
:
Flexible
thinking
in
a
constantly
changing
world
,
Leonard
Mlodinow
,
renders
some
guidelines
on
how
to
the
mind
to
develop
more
creative
thinking
.
He
contends
that
such
skills
are
within
the
compass
of
most
people
.
This
'elastic
thinking'
as
he
named
it
,
focuses
on
stretching
the
boundaries
of
the
mind
,
rejecting
the
constraints
that
usually
govern
decision
making
.
The
key
of
elastic
thinking
are
involved
with
connecting
the
unconnected
and
not
being
afraid
of
failure
.
One
example
cited
in
the
book
is
that
of
the
creators
of
Pokeman
Go
!
Traditionally
,
gamers
were
envisaged
as
people
,
but
by
ignoring
this
preconception
,
the
game
developers
changed
the
way
that
people
thought
and
behaved
.
So
,
what
can
you
do
to
develop
this
skill
?
How
can
you
whip
your
mind
into
shape
?
Let's
examine
some
of
Mlodinow's
suggestions
:
"
If
you
really
want
to
open
the
door
to
elastic
thinking
,
it
is
paramount
,
"
he
says
,
"
to
carve
out
some
time
in
the
day
for
daydreaming
.
"
Staring
into
space
may
not
endear
you
to
your
boss
even
if
you
do
explain
that
you
are
expanding
your
mind
,
so
it
may
be
better
to
practice
this
outside
of
working
hours
,
at
least
until
you
have
demonstrated
what
an
asset
you
have
become
!
Less
controversial
perhaps
is
the
advice
to
consciously
to
leave
your
comfort
zone
.
Listen
to
ideas
and
concepts
that
you
actively
disagree
with
,
talk
to
strangers
that
are
outside
your
usual
social
circle
,
see
art
and
listen
to
music
outside
your
normal
tastes
.
It
is
important
to
let
go
of
comfortable
ideas
and
to
rest
easy
with
contradiction
and
challenge
.
Of
course
,
we
are
all
familiar
with
the
humble
elastic
band
.
One
of
the
first
and
still
the
largest
companies
in
the
business
is
the
family
owned
,
Alliance
Rubber
Company
in
the
U
.
S
.
A
.
Throughout
the
history
of
the
company
,
their
employees'
innovative
thinking
has
enabled
it
to
diversify
what
it
produces
to
meet
the
needs
of
industries
as
different
as
healthcare
,
fishing
,
and
the
military
?
all
based
on
the
humble
elastic
band
in
many
.
And
why
is
this
change
of
thinking
important
to
you
?
The
answer
is
a
simple
one
:
companies
are
demanding
it
.
Recruitment
managers
are
reporting
that
there
is
an
ever
bigger
demand
for
flexible
thinkers
.
Those
that
can
demonstrate
a
track
history
of
creativity
attract
great
interest
from
the
fastest
growing
companies
.
So
,
don't
just
,
create
the
time
for
a
little
unfocused
thinking
in
your
day
.
You
might
be
surprised
at
what
ideas
pop
into
your
head
.
