En mi experiencia el mayor incentivo para la creatividad es conformar un ambiente de libertad de expresión. Se toma en cuenta el aporte de todos, sin prejuicio. Si alguna propuesta no es apropiada para un momento dado se conserva en un registro y se retoma cuando sea pertinente. Invitar a personas con perspectivas diferentes contribuye en varios sentidos: contrastar con las nuestras, enriquecerlas, ajustarlas y observar que la resistencia al cambio se produce de manera más frecuente de lo que pensamos, aún en los equipos creativos. Innovar demanda convicción y compromiso con los miembros de nuestro equipo.

To integrate new perspectives effectively in problem-solving, implement the "Incremental Adoption Strategy." Begin by introducing small, manageable changes that demonstrate immediate benefits. This allows team members to experience the value of new ideas without overwhelming them. Pair these changes with consistent communication, explaining how each step aligns with the broader vision. Foster a culture of collaboration by encouraging feedback and adjusting based on insights gathered from early adopters. Over time, these incremental shifts build momentum and reduce resistance, making it easier to embrace larger, more transformative changes. This approach ensures sustainable integration of fresh perspectives.

In my experience, the key to combating resistance is communication. Determining why the person(s) is pushing back, and using that to find a common ground and resolution.

1. I believe it is critical to lead by example when opening the floor of innovative suggestions. You cannot be a leader who encourages new fresh ideas but is the first one to shoot them down or neglect to use them. If employees or teams can see that their ideas go beyond the team discussion, and are utilised as well as credited for it - it can encourage employees to not keep ideas to themselves but to share them openly. 2. Reminding employees of the bigger picture (i.e., the vision, the why - purpose) of the initiative may help employees realise new ideas or change is not a bad thing or a personal attack to what they thought worked just fine but it is needed for the betterment of the team, the vision and mission of the organisation.
