Which Famous Innovator are You?

1. What describes your perfect day at work?

Having time to get out of my cube and talk with others. It gets so boring when I work on my own and I love a fresh perspective.

Being given a problem that needs to be solved…then successfully finding a solution!

Getting in on time, getting out on time. Nobody bugging me with an unexpected project.

When I have a great new idea and everyone gets behind it.

When everything runs on time and according to schedule. This allows me more time to observe the world around me.

When I don’t have a single meeting and I have complete freedom to come up with new ideas – the wilder the better!

4. When someone approaches you with a new idea you think needs some work, you might say:

“That’s so crazy, it just might work!”

“That won’t work.” (honesty is the best policy)

“Explain to me why you think this will work.”

“Let’s get some more great minds together and see what we can come up with as a team.”

“Can I take a crack at it?”

“Do you mind if I think about that for a bit and get back to you tomorrow?”

5. You are headed to an innovation fair at work.You might be thinking to yourself:

What a fun way to spend a day at work!

I don’t have time for this right now, I have a critical problem I am trying to solve TODAY!

I can’t wait to show them all what I’m working on.

I probably won’t offer up much – but will observe and soak it all in. It will be productive.

I hope I’m not the only one willing to get out of my comfort zone and really shake things up!

Oh geez… not this again!
