100/2. BE A WARRIOR WHEN SELLING YOUR
IDEAS
Roger von Oech, a noted creativity consultant and author,
suggests that there are four distinct roles that must be filled
during the creativity /innovation process: explorer, artist,
judge, and warrior.'
"When you're searching for new information, be an
EXPLORER.
When you're turning your resources into new
ideas, be an ARTIST.
When you're
evaluating the
merits of an idea, be
a TUDGE.
When you're carrying
your idea into action, be a
WARRIOR." 8
