Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The co-founder and longtime president of Pixar updates and expands his 2014 New York Times bestseller on creative leadership, reflecting on the management principles that built Pixar’s singularly successful culture, and on all he learned during the past nine years that allowed Pixar to retain its creative culture while continuing to evolve. “Might be the most thoughtful management book ever.”—Fast Company For nearly thirty years, Pixar has dominated the world of animation, producing such beloved films as the Toy Story trilogy, Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Up, and WALL-E, which have gone on to set box-office records and garner eighteen Academy Awards. The joyous storytelling, the inventive plots, the emotional authenticity: In some ways, Pixar movies are an object lesson in what creativity really is. Here, Catmull reveals the ideals and techniques that have made Pixar so widely admired—and so profitable. As a young man, Ed Catmull had a dream: to make the first computer-animated movie. He nurtured that dream as a Ph.D. student, and then forged a partnership with George Lucas that led, indirectly, to his founding Pixar with Steve Jobs and John Lasseter in 1986. Nine years later, Toy Story was released, changing animation forever. The essential ingredient in that movie’s success—and in the twenty-five movies that followed—was the unique environment that Catmull and his colleagues built at Pixar, based on philosophies that protect the creative process and defy convention, such as: • Give a good idea to a mediocre team and they will screw it up. But give a mediocre idea to a great team and they will either fix it or come up with something better. • It’s not the manager’s job to prevent risks. It’s the manager’s job to make it safe for others to take them. • The cost of preventing errors is often far greater than the cost of fixing them. • A company’s communication structure should not mirror its organizational structure. Everybody should be able to talk to anybody. Creativity, Inc. has been significantly expanded to illuminate the continuing development of the unique culture at Pixar. It features a new introduction, two entirely new chapters, four new chapter postscripts, and changes and updates throughout. Pursuing excellence isn’t a one-off assignment but an ongoing, day-in, day-out, full-time job. And Creativity, Inc. explores how it is done.

Book excerpt: Is there a hidden, powerful secret to becoming more creative and finding success with your work? Did creative masters like Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Henri Matisse possess an abundance of talent the rest of us can only dream of? This book is the third in a three-part series about the Power of Creativity for new writers, musicians, filmmakers and artists. It's for anyone who has a great idea (or even just a little one) but they're finding it difficult to act on their idea, do deep work and finish their most important creative projects. In this book, you will discover these strategies: ˃˃˃ 1. Immerse Yourself in Your Work There's a mindset successful creative people adopt too. Call it flow, call it a fugue, call it total immersion: I'll show you how creative masters turn on and off this mindset at will and how you can do the same. ˃˃˃ 2. Seek Out Solitude Extroverts thrive when working in the company of others, but many writers, musicians, painters and artists do their best work alone. So how can you create alone and still feel positive about your work and the self? ˃˃˃ 3. Be Obsessed It takes a level of focus and even obsession to see a creative project (like writing a book or composing an album) from beginning to end. If you're alarmed, know that obsession is something you can embrace rather than fear"with the right approach. ˃˃˃ 4. Root Out Perfectionism Like a Weed Perfectionism is a nasty weed that could be choking the life out of your ideas. I'll guide you through the types of perfectionism to watch out for" and then root them out. ˃˃˃ 5. Practice Your Craft Deliberately What is deliberate practice? It's not enough to just practice writing, drawing or painting every day. You must be smart about the techniques you use for learning, practicing and problem solving. ˃˃˃ 6. Cut the Cord For every creative person, there comes a time when you must focus on what's important, commit to doing the work" and cut the rope. In this personal story, I explain what this looks like ˃˃˃ 7. Fall Forwards Making messy mistakes is part of the creative process. The trick is to getting positive results is to test your ideas sooner and learn from your mistakes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Brimming with ideas. . . . The Origins of Creativity approach[es] creativity scientifically but sensitively, feeling its roots without pulling them out.”—Economist In a stirring exploration of human nature recalling his foundational work Consilience, Edward O. Wilson offers a “luminous” (Kirkus Reviews) reflection on the humanities and their integral relationship to science. Both endeavors, Wilson argues, have their roots in human creativity—the defining trait of our species. By studying fields as diverse as paleontology, evolution, and neurobiology, Wilson demonstrates that creative expression began not 10,000 years ago, as we have long assumed, but more than 100,000 years ago in the Paleolithic Age. A provocative investigation into what it means to be human, The Origins of Creativity reveals how the humanities have played an unexamined role in defining our species. With the eloquence, optimism, and pioneering inquiry we have come to expect from our leading biologist, Wilson proposes a transformational “Third Enlightenment” in which the blending of science and humanities will enable a deeper understanding of our human condition, and how it ultimately originated.

Download or read book Out of Our Minds written by Ken Robinson and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creativity is critical. Out of Our Minds explores creativity: its value in business, its ubiquity in children, its perceived absence in many adults and the phenomenon through which it disappears — and offers a groundbreaking approach for getting it back. Author Sir Ken Robinson is an internationally recognised authority on creativity, and his TED talk on the subject is the most watched video in TED’s history. In this book, Sir Ken argues that organisations everywhere are struggling to fix a problem that originates in schools and universities. Organisations everywhere are competing in a world that changes in the blink of an eye – they need people who are flexible enough to adapt, and creative enough to find novel solutions to problems old and new. Out of Our Minds describes how schools, businesses and communities can work together to bring creativity out of the closet and realise its inherent value at every stage of life. This new third edition has been updated to reflect changing technologies and demographics, with updated case studies and coverage of recent changes to education. While education and training are the keys to the future, the key can also be turned the other way; locking people away from their own creativity. Only by actively fostering creativity can businesses unlock those doors and achieve their true potential. This book will help you to: Understand the importance of actively promoting creativity and innovation. Discover why creativity stagnates somewhere between childhood and adulthood. Learn how to re-awaken dormant creativity to help your business achieve more. Explore ways in which we can work together to keep creativity alive for everyone. Modern business absolutely demands creativity of thought and action. We're all creative as children — so where does it go? When do we lose it? Out of Our Minds has the answers, and clear solutions for getting it back.

Book excerpt: Are you ready to build habits, face your fears and change your life? Because that's the Power of Creativity. This book is for new writers, musicians, filmmakers, artists and anyone who has ever asked questions like "How can I become more creative"; or, "How can I get more ideas?"; or "How can I focus on my thoughts and just let them flow?"

In this book, you will discover these strategies: 1. Prepare to be Inspired. Inspiration is nice, but that doesn & rsquo;t mean you should sit around all day waiting for ideas to come to you. Instead, cultivate smart creative habits that help you find ideas faster. 2. Trace Your Creative Roots. To know what you're going to create (and to overcome problems like procrastination, fear and self-doubt), you must understand what drives you. You must understand what you're passionate about and for that, a personal mission statement is key. 3. Learn What Your Craft (And Your Audience) Demands. To master your craft, whether that by writing, painting, music, film or art, requires learning what both it and your audience expect from you. 4. Find a Creative Master to Mentor You. A mentor will help you face your fears, master the self and find better ideas faster. But, what if you can't find one? 5. Strengthen Your Mind and Body. Creative masters understand the value of meditation, physical exercise and protecting their best self. They know becoming more creative isn't just a mental practice. 6. Invest In Your Side-Projects. When you need when you need a break from your main gig, turn towards a side-project. That's what smart creative people do, and they often find real success in this approach. 7. Go to War Against Your Fears. Your fear of failure, your fear of rejection, your fear of criticism, let's change that.
