Essay Question
For your final assignment for this course, you will need to write an essay of at least 1250 words that applies Adrian Brown’s characteristics of a creative organization to a new situation.
In your essay, please imagine that you are the founder of a start-up that wants innovation to drive its future and believes that team creativity should be the engine for the organization.
Adrian Brown has identified five characteristics of a creative organization:
Information is free flowing;
New ideas are welcomed;
Good ideas are nurtured;
Risk taking is accepted;
Innovators are rewarded.
Employing Brown’s five characteristics, explain how you would enable creativity in your start-up at the team level. Please provide at least two specific ideas or actions for each of the characteristics, (for example, two ideas or actions for “5. Good ideas are nurtured” that advance good ideas in a team-setting).
Successful essays will apply concepts addressed by Brown to a specific (though, perhaps fictional) start-up scenario. This means that you should cite specific ideas from Brown and other course readings (MLA or APA format preferred) and that your essay should have a works cited or references page. You may choose to draw upon additional research or personal experience, in addition to concepts from course readings.
The essay should be double-spaced and submitted as a Microsoft Word file.
Note that essays that do not meet the word count requirement are generally not able to respond to the question in enough specificity or detail to be effective. As a result, essays that do not meet the word count will be failed.
