Speculation has always been criticized in the popular language and political discourse, such as to make easy money at the gaming and gambling, also has been made responsible, especially when linked to hoarding, to produce higher prices and thereby harm consumers.

One complaint I hear frequently is that their managers give employees incremental ideas, or more of the same, while what they want are ideas are radical and different, that have the potential to transform the business.

Many managers are in fact murderers (serial) of ideas.

However, creativity is essential to any successful business and today more than ever, is key to the survival of businesses. Unfortunately, creativity has not been in the priorities of most managers.
