1) Do you feel the 10 Commandments helps balance chaos and order in this world? Why or Why not? (support your answer with an example)
2) The account of biblical creation can be viewed as a model for innovative and creative leaders when managing chaos because it describes how one is capable of doing great things even when they are faced with many obstacles. Imaging there is a entrepreneur who wants to create his own business. He has to start from ground zero like Jesus did. He has to decide first what he is going to create and what he is going to call it. He then has to establish how the company will survive. For instance, where will it live? What will it need to survive? Then he will go even further to decide the small details all like Jesus did, one step at a time. The story of creation is a great way to think of innovation and leadership. All things are possible through faith and hard work.
3) Creation is the original innovation, it is when everything we know came to be and because of creation we now live in a world where innovation is constant. Biblical creation was the catalyst for all innovation, the past and future belong together including tradition and innovation. God began all living things out of nothing, therefore giving us the ability to innovate as well. During creation, God had a method and was very systematic and because of this, we have what we do today (Rowe, 2019). In terms of chaos, biblical creation shows how the chaos was not only managed but utilized to create something incredible. God managed chaos beautifully in order to create the world we live in today. When God was creating life, he did it in an organized way. This was how he manage chaos in order to create the world. In terms of chaos, staying organized and having a systematic approach is a great way to ensure everything stays managed.
4) I believe that when chaos is created and/or enabled individuals are able to be pushed out of their comfort zones and create, this can ultimately spark innovation. Also when there is a good amount of chaos present, there are many individuals that will feel an urgency to make things right or put things back into place, this healthy amount of chaos can spark excitement and passion into individuals. It is also important that when these times of chaos are made/enabled that as a leader (or someone within the organization) everyone understands what the ultimate goal is. The reason that this is important is because everyone as a team needs to have a clear understanding of what they are working towards and what key role they play in helping the organization to get there.
5) When there is order, that is just what it is, coming to work doing the same thing.

1) Do you feel the 10 Commandments helps balance chaos and
order in this world? Why or Why not? (support your answer
with an example)
2) The account of biblical creation can be viewed as a model for
innovative and creative leaders when managing chaos because it
describes how one is capable of doing great things even when
they are faced with many obstacles. Imaging there is a
entrepreneur who wants to create his own business. He has to
start from ground zero like Jesus did. He has to decide first
what he is going to create and what he is going to call it. He
then has to establish how the company will survive. For
instance, where will it live? What will it need to survive? Then
he will go even further to decide the small details all like Jesus
did, one step at a time. The story of creation is a great way to
think of innovation and leadership. All things are possible
through faith and hard work.
3) Creation is the original innovation, it is when everything we
know came to be and because of creation we now live in a world
where innovation is constant. Biblical creation was the catalyst
for all innovation, the past and future belong together including
tradition and innovation. God began all living things out of
nothing, therefore giving us the ability to innovate as well.
During creation, God had a method and was very systematic and
because of this, we have what we do today (Rowe, 2019). In
terms of chaos, biblical creation shows how the chaos was not
2. only managed but utilized to create something incredible. God
managed chaos beautifully in order to create the world we live
in today. When God was creating life, he did it in an organized
way. This was how he manage chaos in order to create the
world. In terms of chaos, staying organized and having a
systematic approach is a great way to ensure everything stays

4) I believe that when chaos is created and/or enabled
individuals are able to be pushed out of their comfort zones and

a good amount of chaos present, there are many individuals that
will feel an urgency to make things right or put things back into

within the organization) everyone understands what the ultimate
goal is. The reason that this is important is because everyone as
a team needs to have a clear understanding of what they are
working towards and what key role they play in helping the
organization to get there.
5) When there is order, that is just what it is, coming to work
doing the same thing everyday, following the rules and having a
basic day. With order, there isn't really any creative juices
flowing, you know exactly how the day will be. When a leader
throws a curve ball it allows for employees to get creative. For
example, if there is a company that is doing fairly well, and all
of a sudden they get bought out by another, that is a big
change! It can have employees questioning their work ethic,
their loyalty, and how good of an employee they are. It makes
them start thinking of how they can impress the new company
and keep their positions. Also, it allows leaders to do the
same. They are able access their employees and give them new
tasks to take on and give them a challenge. It is very important
for leaders to share what their vision is with their team. The
3. team must have something to follow and have a plan. Having
that clear sense of purpose helps a team complete the
appropriate tasks to lead to the ultimate goal. If a leader always
has the answer then why is a team needed (Ron Edmondson,
2015). Leaders allow chaos and confusion to prevail because it
causes new discoveries and allow alot of teamwork.
6) I am glad you said that chaos can create the best solutions. I
do believe that. I think the word "chaos" is overwhelming
itself. Of course when everyone thinks or sees this word it is
considered negative immediately. In my line of work, there is
frequent chaos, but there are also meeting after after meeting
with every team member involved thinking of new ways to make
things better and effective. Again, without chaos there would
not be a need for growth or change.
