The creative economies of the future will eventually dominate the traditional heavy industrial and manufacturing economies of the past. As society moves towards an ideas and intellectual property based trading environment, old systems will be rapidly overtaken by new innovations in process and thought.
In order to maintain a consistently contemporary attitude, ways of thinking must be embraced that do not deal in absolutes but are more suited to creativity and innovation. Emerging creative economies must strive to maintain contemporary relevance. This can be achieved by attracting and enrolling the guidance and imagination of intuitive, insightful thinkers in an atmosphere of enlightened acceptance of new ideas, experimentation and fun.
Some watchwords will be;
Responses not solutions
Stimulation not control
Debate and openness
Risk and experimentation
Show and tell
Constant change, adaptation and mutation
Acceptance of pitfalls and failures
Global relevance and local action
Joy, laughter and freedom of the human spirit
