The 4 Keys to Organizational CreativityRyan Kinsey
Inspiring creativity within an organization can be a difficult task, however cultivating an environment which supports creativity is much easier. There seem to be 4 key areas where creativity forms, thrives and drives innovation. How do you know when you've succeeded at developing a creative rich environment? Assess the corporate culture, do people feel inspired and creative? Do your people tend to look well into the future or stay in the present? Do your people feel any idea will be heard and better do they feel comfortable voicing their ideas?
Views about human thinking and knowledge powers - for betterment of individuals first and of course for the organzation, family and society in the end. A deeper version will follow soon. See notes on the blog with images

What is creativity, anyway?
“Creativity is the ability to produce work that is both novel and appropriate”
~ Sternberg & Lubart
“Humans are animals that specialize in thinking and knowing, and our extraordinary cognitive abilities have transformed every aspect of our lives. In contrast to our chimpanzee cousins and Stone Age ancestors, we are complex political, economic, scientific and artistic creatures, living in a vast range of habitats, many of which are our own creation.”

“The term ‘cognition’ refers to all processes by which the sensory input is transformed, reduced, elaborated, stored, recovered, and used. It is concerned with these processes even when they operate in the absence of relevant stimulation, as in images and hallucinations... Given such a sweeping definition, it is apparent that cognition is involved in everything a human being might possibly do; that every psychological phenomenon is a cognitive phenomenon.”
Ulric Neisser, 1967, Cognitive Psychology

J.P. Guilford’s 1950 APA Address
“The neglect of this subject by psychologists is appalling…I examined the index of the Psychological Abstracts for each year since its origin. Of approximately 121,000 titles listed in the past 23 years, only 186 were indexed as definitely bearing on the subject of creativity.”
-Guilford
J.P. Guilford’s 1950 APA Address
“In other words, less than two-tenths of one per cent of the books and articles indexed in the Abstracts for approximately the past quarter century [1925-1950] bear directly on this subject.”
-Guilford
Intelligence
“Some of you will undoubtedly feel that the subject of creative genius has not been as badly neglected as I have indicated, because of the common belief that genius is largely a matter of intelligence and the IQ.”
-Guilford
Galton, Cattell, Cox, Terman, Spearman
Not just intelligence
Guilford’s address marked the “the emergence of a wider psychological interest in the non-intellective components of cognitive performance.”

It seems like you might be referring to the book "Outliers: The Story of Success" by Malcolm Gladwell. In this influential book, Gladwell explores the factors that contribute to high levels of success and examines the stories of outliers who have achieved extraordinary accomplishments. The book delves into the idea that individual success is not solely determined by personal qualities but is often influenced by external factors such as culture, upbringing, and opportunity.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Our mind… Left Hemisphere Sequential, logical, and analytical Controls the right side of the body Is “the thousand words” Specializes in text Analyzes the details Right Hemisphere Nonlinear, intuitive, and holistic Controls the left side of the body Is the “picture” Specializes in context Synthesizes the big picture Left brain capabilities are necessary, but no longer sufficient. Right brain qualities will determine who flourishes and who flounders.

12. We have moved from an economy built on people’s backs to an economy built on people’s left brains to what is emerging today – an economy built more and more on people’s right brains.
14. Not just function but also DESIGN. “Businesspeople don’t need to understand designers better. They need to be designers.” - Roger Martin, dean, Rotman School of Management
15. Not just argument but also STORY. “Humans are not ideally set up to understand logic; they are ideally set up to understand stories.” - Roger C. Schank, cognitive scientist
16. Not just focus but also SYMPHONY. “The key to success is to risk thinking unconventional thoughts. Convention is the enemy of progress. As long as you’ve got slightly more perception than the average wrapped loaf, you could invent something.” - Trevor Baylis, inventor
17. Not just logic but also EMPATHY. “The great gift of human beings is that we have the power of empathy.” - Meryl Streep, actress
18. Not just seriousness but also PLAY. “Games are the most elevated form of investigation.” - Albert Einstein
19. Not just accumulation but also MEANING. “We are born for meaning, not pleasure, unless it is pleasure that is steeped in meaning.” - Jacob Needleman
20. In this new era each of us must look carefully at what we do and ask ourselves: Can someone overseas do it cheaper? Can a computer do it faster? Am I offering something that satisfies the nonmaterial, transcendent desires of an abundant age? Additionally, we must ask…
21. Are we, as educators, preparing our students in such as way that they are prepared for the dawning Conceptual Age; and can they master the high-concept, high-touch abilities necessary for success?
