It’s a paradox. Creativity has never been more essential to competitiveness in the business world, but the critical approach to practical creativity in organisations is often lacking. Alan Iny offers a key to the well-meaning exhortation to “think outside the box” - apply doubt to the very models and philosophies that make up the box itself. Thinking in new boxes is a way to provide the structure and analysis that the brain craves, while also fostering massive amounts of creativity and new thinking.

Something profound is changing our concept of trust.

This new era of trust could bring with it a more transparent, inclusive and accountable society - if we get it right.
