  1. The creative process A zen view Based on Urasenke tradition of tea

  2. “ To study the way of tea is to study zen.” Sen Soshitsu XV Chado is a rigorous spiritual discipline, a way of training body and mind in awareness. Sen Rikyu summarized the principles of Tea into four concepts: Wa - kei - sei - jaku

  3. Wa: harmony Kei: respect Sei: purity Jaku: tranquility

  4. The creative process consists of four steps: Orientation - idea finding - trying out - implementation

  5. Creativity is like the sound of the wind In the pine trees ... On a painting

  6. Sensitivity to the changing rhythms of the seasons and Harmony with unpredictable circumstances: Awareness of the unchanging in the changing

  7. For proper orientation & analysis one has to find one’s way around: • It implies fact finding about : • -situation • aspects (i.e. economic, organizational, technical, human) • paradigms (viewpoints & outlook)

  8. Kei: The strict and formal etiquette teaches Respect for people, utensils and lifestyle.

  9. IDEA FINDING Requires a respectful attitude for an idea is neither good nor bad.. It is …. an idea and all depends on what you do with it. It requires that people and their ideas are treated without criticism

  10. Step out of the dichotomy of right/wrong and assume a kind of neutral position. Use [mu], which means 'no thing' or 'not yes-not no'. Such a mind-set helps us to step outside the situation and consider other perspectives. Mostly new ways are found by coincidence, accident or faults. In creactivation we are consciously looking differently and accidents or faults are regarded with special interest and often consciously created.

  11. Sei: Cleanliness and orderliness in both the physical and spiritual sense. Even the most mundane acts carry the seeds of enlightenment. Total attention for the task at hand purifies both heart and mind.

  12. Don’t throw away any ideas

  13. Prototyping doesn’t just solve straightforward problems. Call it serendipity or even luck, but once you start drawing or making things, you open up new possibilities of discovery. It’s the same method that’s helped scientists unlock some of the greatest secrets of nature. Tom Kelley

  14. Through the constant practice of wa, kei and sei, one ispreparedfor the stillness and silence of jaku, the dynamic force of one’s innermost being.

  15. Effective leadership in process Creates certainty, confidence and commitment of all participants. Awareness of different viewpoints, ideas and paradigms creates the flexibility and creativity to deal with the unexpected in an effective and efficient manner.
