1. How would you design an organization so that it could, in Tom Peters's words, "thrive on chaos"? What characteristics would such an organization have? What kind of people would you try to hire? How would the role of the managers differ from the traditional view of what a manager does?

2. In discussing the perceptual block of stereotyping, we used the example of a person with long hair and no necktie applying for a job as an engineer. Did you imagine this person as male or female? Why? Was there a block involved in your perception? Describe it.

3. The point is often made that formal schooling can actually discourage young children from following their natural curiosity. That curiosity is an important element of creativity, and so it may be the case that schools indirectly and inadvertently are causing children to become less creative than they might be. What does this imply for those of us who have attended school for many years? What can you suggest to today's educators as ways to encourage children to be curious and creative?
