The Department of Really Stupid Ideas: 'Most people think they just appear out of thin air! But the truth is, there's a great deal of very hard work involved!'

'Williams, we're not used to receiving such excellent ideas as these, so we'd like to tone them down a bit.'

Thinking Gears

"Good" "Bad" "Work on it" "Keep working - maybe it's not as bad as you think it is" "Put it to a committee" "Give up" "Make it worse" "Make it better" "Still a bad idea" "Overthink it" "Throw yourself into a pit of wild badgers" "Throw it away" "Call it done" "Sigh."

On-the-job creativity may go unrewarded an may even create consternation among co-workers.

You are much more likely to think outside the box if it is broken.

' A new idea '

"Quick! The ideas are hatching!"

"Do you mind if I bounce something off you?"

'Frankly, I'm not sure this whole idea-sharing thing is working.'
