Reading List

I have decided this is a good way to keep track of my professional readings (which are mostly online at this stage). I am starting officially July 2015 but I wish I thought of this earlier!


Can Innovation Skills be Learned?
A short reading which fits perfectly well with the concept of Growth Mindsets. Innovation is something that can be grown and not at a fixed level that we are born with. YAH!

Putting the research together, some of the most essential qualities of a successful innovator appear to be the following:
  • Curiosity, which is a habit of asking good questions and a desire to understand more deeply
  • Collaboration, which begins with listening to and learning from others who have perspectives and expertise that are very different from your own
  • Associative or integrative thinking
  • A bias toward action and experimentation
All things which can be "mentored, nurtured and taught".
