lack of resources as the main obstacles to innovation. This common wisdom suggests eradicating all constraints: by getting rid of rules and boundaries, creativity, and innovative thinking will thrive. Our research, however, challenges this wisdom and suggests that managers can innovate better by embracing constraints.
We reviewed 145 empirical studies on the effects of constraints on creativity and innovation, and found that individuals, teams, and organizations alike benefit from a healthy dose of constraints. It is only when the constraints become too high that they stifle creativity and innovation.
According to the studies we reviewed, when there are no constraints on the creative process, complacency sets in, and people follow what psychologists call the path-of-least-resistance – they go for the most intuitive idea that comes to mind rather than investing in the development of better ideas. Constraints, in contrast, provide focus and a creative challenge that motivates people to search for and connect information from different sources to generate novel ideas for new products, services, or business processes.

最近的調(diào)查表明，管理者們傾向于將合規(guī)性限制和缺乏資源視為創(chuàng)新的主要障礙。這種普遍存在的真理建議：根除所有限制：通過(guò)擺脫掉規(guī)則和界限，創(chuàng)造力和創(chuàng)新思維將帶來(lái)蓬勃發(fā)展。然而，我們的研究挑戰(zhàn)了這種智慧，并建議經(jīng)理人們可以通過(guò)接受約束來(lái)更好地進(jìn)行創(chuàng)新。
我們回顧了145個(gè)關(guān)于約束對(duì)創(chuàng)造力和創(chuàng)新影響的實(shí)證研究，發(fā)現(xiàn)個(gè)人，團(tuán)隊(duì)和組織都受益于適當(dāng)劑量的健康約束。只有當(dāng)約束變得太緊時(shí)，它們才會(huì)扼殺創(chuàng)造力和創(chuàng)新。
根據(jù)我們參與過(guò)的研究表明，當(dāng)創(chuàng)作過(guò)程沒(méi)有任何限制的時(shí)候，人就會(huì)會(huì)沾沾自喜，人們就會(huì)遵循心理學(xué)家所說(shuō)的“最省力”原則 –他們會(huì)選擇想到最憑直覺(jué)的想法，而不是投入更多精力去發(fā)展更好的想法。相反，約束提供了焦點(diǎn)和創(chuàng)造性的挑戰(zhàn)，促使人們會(huì)去搜索并連接來(lái)自不同來(lái)源的信息，從而為新產(chǎn)品，服務(wù)或業(yè)務(wù)流程創(chuàng)造出新穎的想法。
以上就是2020年MBA考試考前英語(yǔ)外刊閱讀（十二）的全部?jī)?nèi)容。沖刺階段一定要注意梳理掌握知識(shí)體系，查漏補(bǔ)缺，學(xué)會(huì)反思、善于總結(jié)，避免無(wú)所謂的丟分，重點(diǎn)解決會(huì)而不得分的問(wèn)題。
