The Truth:
There are no “brained” people. Creativity isn’t the isn’t on one side of the brain, and it isn’t a talent

brain, you’re capable of being creative.

The Shocking Power of Remix
Special people, in Special Places:Innovations are not the property of a few geniuses, but they belong more and more, to everyone.
Good Ideas are ALways original:The truth is, great ideas are rarely original, instead, they’re built on several other good ideas combined together.
Good ideas can come from one source, great ideas are born from the remix
Let’s see an Example

The Biggest Challenge isn’t newideas, it’s spreading and testingthe great ideas we already have.
The Truth:
Sometimes, creative ideas make people uncomfortable.
“It turns out that, at least subconsciously, we can have a hard time recognizing ideas as both new and
useful at the same time.
This cognitive dissonance between creativity and practicality may actually create a subtle bias
against creative ideas.”
-David Burkus, The Myths of Creativity
So, what is an idea?

The World of Tomorrow (It’s OK to be Wrong)
“Creativity is a Team Sport”-David Burkus
There’s a gap:It’s not enough to learn to be more creative. Great ideas are rarely accepted on the first go. The most important part of creativity is actually the persistence of creators in establishing buy-in, and building coalitions toward innovation.
Creative success can be achieved by following the UX process, which means it can be learned, which means...it can be taught.

customers who review hotel images who then proceed to book in
48 hours.>
What does the future look like?
The Truth:
As creatives, the future is best defined as a safe space to fail forward, take risks and remix ideas.
