Creating Challenge Day 40 - Collaboration

Today's Thought: Sometimes collaborating takes just as much effort, or more, than doing something on one's own. One has to walk that out to discover which way is better in some situations.

On a similar vein, I've been continuing to read Artful Making by Austin & Devin (2003). I love this book! The four core elements of artful making are release, emergence, collaboration, and play. There is a way to skilfully integrate these elements into optimal business settings to bring greater impact and results. I'm looking forward to reading more.

Creating Challenge Day 28 - Work Like Art

I'm reading an excellent book called "Artful Making: What Managers Need to Know About How Artists Work."

Here is a quote:

"As business becomes more dependant on knowledge to create value, work becomes more like art. In the future, managers who understand how artists work will have an advantage over those who don't."

I'm looking forward to reading more about this intersection between management and performance art. Sounds like a whole brain experience.
