Question One
An idea is described as a thought that can be implemented and used in the achievement of
a specific objective. Creativity, on the other hand, is the use of these ideas to create something.
Once a person has created, he or she is referred to as an innovator. An example of an idea is the
creation of a nanny network. The world has diversified to the point where women are also busy.
After giving birth, most women want to rest at their homes' comfort and still pursue their careers

hand, can be influenced by the organization by encouraging people to create. The organization
should emphasize the importance of tapping into your passions and inspirations to enable the
creation of a creative force. Agility, on the other hand, comes into context when it comes to
thinking and acting quickly. A critical factor in problem-solving in some cases is the ability to
think and act quickly. This helps reduce the affect rate and helps in the management of the

Question Three
