How has creativity helped you in problem solving?

Creativity is the ability to come up with original ideas. In other words, you can think in new ways, and come up with strategies that aren’t conventional.

This is beneficial when problem solving for several reasons:

Novel strategy discovery (and differentiation). You know that differentiating your business is vital if you want to stand out in the industry. Sometimes, coming up with unique solutions to common problems is the only way to achieve that differentiation. Is there a way you can serve your customers in a way that none of your competitors can? Is there a novel strategy that nobody has utilized to improve profitability? Creativity helps you stumble upon these unique, undiscovered tactics.

Breaking past conventional barriers. Creativity is also important for breaking through conventional barriers to advancement. If you run into a complex problem that’s always been solved a certain way, with a handful of disadvantages, you may be able to eliminate those disadvantages with a creative new approach.

Finding optimal solutions. Coming up with original ideas is also a way to get closer to “optimal” solutions. If you generate one or two basic ideas, you’ll have limited options for how to move forward. Through creativity, you can generate five or six ideas, and you’ll have a much better chance at improving upon your “first instinct” approaches.
