How to Boost Creativity & Innovation in 10 Minutes | Inc.com: "All you need is 10 minutes--and some very thick skin."

Trying to be innovative feels, at least for most people, nearly impossible.
Don't believe me? Try it. Go ahead. Be innovative. Think of something amazingly new and different. I'll wait.
Give up? (Don't feel bad. I gave up before you did.) Most of us don't have a "creativity switch" we can turn on and off at will.
Our employees don't either. Gathering your team in a room and saying, "Okay, we really need some innovative ideas... what do you have?" never works--unless you play "Kill a Stupid Rule."
Kill a Stupid Rule is one of the tools described by Lisa Bodell, the founder and CEO offuturethink and the author of Kill the Company.
Playing Kill a Stupid Rule is not only easy, your employees will think it's a hoot. Here's how it works:
1. Gather a group of employees.
Then break them down into two-or three-person teams. If possible, pair up people from different functional areas.
