Week 6 Reading Reflection

What I found to be the most interesting aspect of Chapter 5 of the textbook was the subject of the "Innovation Process".  This paragraph explains that most innovations result from a conscious, purposeful search for new opportunities.  I read this paragraph and I automatically related it to my own mindset and goals.  I can see myself as a young innovator of the future.

One concept that was confusing to me was the chart about the "Critical Thinking Process".  I don't know what it is about these charts but they are very confusing to me in this textbook.

Question 1:  What do you think are the requirements of an innovator who is aspiring to be the next Steve Jobs of the world?

Question 2:  Do companies hire people just to use them for their innovative skills?

I would ask this question because I believe that an innovative mind is highly valuable in this world today.  Without these elaborate and special minds there would be no major corporations.  There would be no Apple,  Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram.  These corporations were all founded by men and women who worked hard to be the "Next Big Thing" in the world.

I can't say that I disagree with anything the author wrote in this chapter.  I found this chapter to be highly relatable.
