How does planning encourage innovation and creativity
Introduction
Planning is the process of looking back over what we’ve done, taking note of how we could have done it better, and then making adjustments before doing it again. It’s also a way of helping us take control of our lives so that we can live up to our full potential as creative beings. Planning isn’t just about getting things done—it’s about finding out how best to do them.
What kind of planning works best?
If you’re planning for an activity or task, this involves thinking about what information you need to gather before starting the project, as well as how much time and energy will be required.
Planning also involves looking ahead into the future: How will I approach my work today? What tasks do I need to complete today in order for me to meet my goal tomorrow? Planning can help us see where our strengths are, so that we can focus our efforts on those areas rather than neglecting them altogether or putting them off until later in the day when there’s less pressure (or no longer).
Planning helps us re-examine our assumptions.
Planning helps us to think about what we’re doing and why. It helps us identify the assumptions that we make about the future, as well as those made by others.
Planning is also a good way of making sure that you are aware of all possible outcomes, so that if something goes wrong or unexpectedly changes, you can deal with it appropriately.
Planning boosts creativity and innovation.
Planning encourages innovation and creativity by helping you to think about the future.
Planning is a way of thinking about what you have done, what you want to do and how much time is available. It helps us make decisions based on our goals, resources and needs. Planning helps us see how we can use our resources most effectively in order to achieve our goals.
Planning lets us make better use of resources.
Planning helps us use our resources more efficiently.
- It helps eliminate duplication of effort—if someone is doing something similar to another person in a different department, it can be useful for both groups to coordinate their efforts through planning.
Planning helps us control the timing of our actions.
Planning can help us avoid procrastination, rushing and over-committing.
Planning trains us to think about the future.
Planning encourages us to think about the future in a structured way. It trains us to make better decisions, especially when we’re faced with uncertainty.
Planning helps us:
- Think about how things will work out—will I be able to pay my bills? Will my team be able to meet their goals? When was the last time that I updated our goal-setting process and why did we need one in the first place? What kind of challenges could come up next year (or beyond)?
Conclusion
Planning is not an end in itself. It’s a way to make progress towards your goals, and it lets you know when you’re on track.
