People with strong interpretive skills receive support from others. Interpretive ability involves i) classifying or grouping phenomena with similar attributes, ii) identifying patterns that share commonalities within the classified groups, and iii) connecting or comparing these patterns with other attribute patterns to gain insights. If the content can be presented in a clear and engaging manner, we will achieve interpretive supremacy among the public. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
A comment system was in place at a United States Forest Service branch with 2,500 employees. The employees were instructed to submit their proposals on page 4 for comment. Two hundred and fifty-two proposals were submitted over four years. In terms of the number of employees, one idea was proposed every 40 years. The change was necessary. Employees were required to submit a brief idea outline via email. In 30 days, the idea could be implemented if there was no response from the designated contact and no legal issues arose. In the first year, 6,000 ideas were generated. A person without creativity may enter the organization, but the organization may destroy creativity. It's more effective to eliminate factors that impede creativity than to attempt to enhance it. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
