Creativity, Innovation and Peter Cook.
I was once in a band, I once managed a band. If only I had thought of it as a business.
‘One of our colleagues regularly uses popular music in the successful management development sessions he runs, drawing on this rich seam of popular culture for memorable metaphors and thinking tools. Shared music making also features in his creativity, team development and problem-solving sessions’. Henry et al. (2010:89)
I came across this in the B822 Block 2 Resources book ‘Managing Problems Creatively’.
I’m certain this refers to Peter Cook, the OU Business School MBA Alumnus I interviewed outside Dingwalls at Camden Lock at the end of October. You can follow him in various places. I like his attack and conviction and how it makes what could be inordinately dull, memorable and fun.
