Children draw easily. Adults say it's hard. Somehow as we age we forget our basic creative tendencies if we do not reinforce them with practice. In many organizations creativity is simply not wanted. The wonderful simplicity and spontaneity of children's art work are valued more when adults learn to create works of art that have the imagination of children's work.
Successful organizations think they know what works and what's right.
They capture their knowledge in employee manuals and training courses that teach the one best way. Think of McDonald's. It requires them to deploy their innate imagination and seize every opportunity possible to instruct. The cost savings come when you recognize that you have probably over-invested in training already. If the organization promotes learning and sharing knowledge, you don't have to teach everyone everything.
