Encouraging Creativity in the Workplace
Creativity is one of the most important aspects for a successful business. However, some leaders hold the wrong belief that creativity is only for a few chosen people or just don't know how to encourage staff members to think creatively. The good news is that everyone possesses creativity and encouraging it can be as simple as changing the way we do things.
The place encourages employees to interact with one another, which in turn ignites conversations that center around work and play. The company also has set up open terraces and multiple meeting rooms so that anyone can freely chat and share ideas.
When a local newspaper covered the impact the company was making, an employee summed it up: "The philosophy is very simple. Our company's success depends on innovation and collaboration. Everything we did was geared toward making it easy to talk".
Take a high-tech company, for example, which has radically changed the traditional work model. Operate under the belief "recruiting the best people is good; keeping them is a lot better" and with the support of empirically-based research, the company has created and maintains innovative work environments that target employees' intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. In addition to higher pay and bonus payouts, the company has set up a cafe within the workplace.
The company has also implemented a tool that allows all employees to ask questions and vote on the questions they want addressed. It has served as an innovative pathway to the discovery of ideas and questions, while also giving a voice to many within the company. In short, the tech company has built a work environment that encourage open conversations. This way workplace satisfaction increased and the company has seen their employees to perform in a more creative way.

What Is Empathy?
Evidence of the most basic sort of empathy, "emotional contagion," or the sharing of another being's emotions, has been found in many species, suggesting it's innate in humans. "We are biologically programmed to have empathy. It's something we can't suppress," says a primatologist Frans de Waal. Abundant evidence exists for "emotional contagion" in animals. Rats that watch other rats suffer electric shocks show their shared fear by freezing in place. Rats will even avoid pressing a lever dispensing a sugar cube if it means another rat won't get shocked. That indirect sense of pain is evident in humans as well: even newborn infants will cry reflexively on hearing another infant cry.
Empathy evolved because of all the ways it served our ancestors. The ability to feel others' feelings helps parents be more sensitive to the needs of their children, increasing the chance that their genes will endure. This basic sort of empathy also encourages cooperation that helps tribes survive. Some studies have suggested that we get less skillful at empathy as adulthood progresses. That may be because empathy demands cognitive skills such as paying attention, processing information, and holding that information in memory, all of which usually become stronger with age. Older adults can perform equally well in those skills, however, when a topic of conversation is more relevant for them. (D) In 2013, a group of researchers tested 49 younger people (ages 15 to 28) and 49 older people (ages 60 to 83) on their ability to read expressions of emotions on other people's faces. The younger participants, as expected, were more skillful overall, but the older ones caught up if they were told in advance that the people they were observing share a lot of common interests with them.
