Africa-Press<\/a> – Rwanda<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Business comes with its share of challenges, which is why many successful entrepreneurs use creativity as an essential component because creativity can be a key differentiator, giving your business a competitive edge.<\/p>\n

Richard Migambi, the founder and CEO of eVolve Ltd Rwanda, a software development and brand strategy company, says that creativity and innovation are important ingredients to any business\u2019 endurance, let alone success.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to keep asking, how can we better serve our customers on a daily basis? In search of the answers to that comes innovation, through creativity, but also creativity needs to be fuelled by the business\u2019 mission and the passion of the craft you\u2019re in as an entrepreneur,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

Creativity makes you noticeable<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cCreativity makes you stand out, your mission is what reminds you of what you want to achieve. Before starting a business, you need to research the field you want to build your business in first, what is the difference that you want to make, and then fill the gap that is there. When you do so, I believe your business will never get to the point of being boring, the only time it gets boring is when you imitate what others do without adding any difference,\u201d says Marie Therese Matutina Tumushabe, a local entrepreneur.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat helps me to always be creative is to look at my long-term goals, and the mission that reminds me of my purpose and focus,\u201d she adds.<\/p>\n

Be open to new things<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen my clients start to get bored with what is on the menu, I always think of ways to create something new that they will appreciate and like. I try new things and add them to the menu so it won\u2019t be the same thing as always, I do this so that my clients don\u2019t get fed up,\u201d says Kevine Nyampinga, a food delivery business owner.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t imitate, we are always trying to bring something new to our market, doing research on what can make a difference in the market helps us a lot, so does listening to our customers,\u201d says Steffa Dusenge, a young entrepreneur. The article \u201cHow to improve your creativity in business\u201d provides strong tips to help business owners improve their creativity:<\/p>\n

Quiet – creativity speaks quietly and needs concentration<\/b><\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to schedule some time for thinking each day, away from the noise and clutter, so you can effectively experience sounds, smells, touch, and the full senses.<\/p>\n

Engage – creativity needs focus and commitment<\/b><\/p>\n

Take the time to listen fully to the voices that really count, including your team leaders and customers. Also, take the time to listen and believe in yourself. Take on and conquer your own fears and challenges, before you face the many business challenges requiring extra creativity.<\/p>\n

Dream – creativity needs imagination and free-thinking<\/b><\/p>\n

Research has long suggested links between dreams and creativity. It suggests that the dreams themselves\u2014with their idiosyncratic imagery, colourful extrapolations on the same theme, and non-judgmental stance\u2014model the free-thinking that precedes robust creativity.<\/p>\n

Relax – creativity requires patience and will not be forced<\/b><\/p>\n

Sometimes your \u2018Type A\u2019 personality works against you. You may never learn to love the queue or the line, but you can be calm in doing so. New ideas do not arrive by timetable. If you live by the clock, creativity won\u2019t find a slot. Practice slowing down your pace once in a while.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
