Innovation Of Innovativeness by Asst. Prof. Dr Prashant Shrivastava Amity Gwalior


Everybody is a born innovative thinker. Innovation comes from within an individual’s conscience. Just look at any child engaged in a tricky game and observe how he finds the way to solve it. Innovative thinking is present in all of us, but during the period of our initial years of our life, we are trained to hold back our uniqueness, our creativity, and our novelty. Our society believes that if we "fit in" and conform we will be happier in life. We are trained from the tender age to color always inside of the lines. As a result, we mislay our ability to express our creativity and innovation as adults.

The good thing is that there’s optimism in being creative. Like any other skill, innovation is a learned behavior whether it’s driving a car, playing the guitar, or just being a good performer. There are a few ways, in my opinion, to excel our innovativeness in any field:


  • Give ourselves the time and the space to be imaginative and creative.
  • Never stop the trait of inquisitiveness
  • Constantly question ourselves and our working practices. Instead of adhering to stale techniques, one should always be thinking of alternative approaches when it comes to solving issues and problems.
  • Put ourselves into a work individually at times and as well as in groups.
  • Every idea is not liable to be the best one. One should allow the fresh air to flow in.
  • Make the creativity a fun not a set target.
