Critical Evaluation Method
• Popper proposed the ‘critical method’ of trial and error.
• “Bold hypotheses should be proposed and then exposed
to the severest of criticism in order to detect where there
is error.”
• The solution, initially ‘tentative’ is a theory which is
critically tested and discussed
• The results (which will change over time) are what he
termed the ‘science of the day’ (p.97)

Creativity and its relevance
• At its heart, creativity is simply the production of novel,
appropriate ideas in any realm of human activity, from
science, to the arts, to education, to business, to everyday
life.
• The ideas must be novel—different from what's been
done before—but they can't be simply bizarre; they must
be appropriate to the problem or opportunity presented.
• Creativity is the first step in innovation, which is the
successful implementation of those novel, appropriate
ideas.

what you do, California Management Review, Vol 40, No, 1, Fall.
