Strategy 3: Traveling for Creativity

The last few weeks were hectic for me, jetting from the U.S. to South America and then to Asia. But it won’t be anything compared to what’s coming up during the next 6 weeks: Europe, Singapore, Japan, India, Korea again, Taiwan, Singapore again, Istanbul. So, I am trying to make the best of it. Preparing a new course on creativity and innovation, it occurs to me how lucky I am. Travel provides constant stimulation. Although I am an office animal rather than a “home gardener” (that is, I arrive at the office at 8 at the latest and stay till 7), the “occasional” trip really stimulates my creative juices. The creativity gurus seem to agree; in fact, Jordan Ayan (author of the book “Aha!”) lists “get out of your box through travel” as “Strategy 3” for creativity.

But, when you do it, you may as well do it right: Get out of your hotel, too!
