Friction in a team bears innovation
Diversity that results in friction and disagreement in a team gives birth to innovative ideas, says a new study. \"The study reveals the secret to how some of the world\'s most iconic video games were created. It was the diversity of the game developing team that made the difference,\" said study leader professor David Stark from University of Warwick.
London: Diversity that results in friction and disagreement in a team gives birth to innovative ideas, says a new study. "The study reveals the secret to how some of the world's most iconic video games were created. It was the diversity of the game developing team that made the difference," said study leader professor David Stark from University of Warwick.
"But it needs social structural support to turn it into something productive, that is people who have worked with other people in the team previously," he said. "Say you put a team of developers together and you ask them to be inventive, but they've all been exposed to the same things in the past, that is, they've worked on similar games previously or for the same companies.
Well, it's not very likely they'll come up with something new," Stark added. "You obviously need diversity in a team to stimulate creativity. However, if you put together a team where they've all been exposed to very different things, you have the potential to innovate. But there are also challenges for coordination within the group because there is such a range of backgrounds," Stark added.
