The global company has been in business for many years giving employment to more than 85,000 people worldwide. With the high number of employees and diversification of products, the company has continued to ensure that the demands of the consumers and operations are streamlined. The leadership of the company has been able to show creativity in different sectors that has allowed it to grow without facing major administration challenges.

Creative Culture of 3M Company The company has employed its creative culture in different areas. The leadership has employed the creative culture in the innovation sector whereby the company has been able to come up with products that cater for different needs of the consumers. The creative leadership in innovation saw the company awarded the by the US Government the National Medal of Technology in the year 1995. From then, the company has been able to continue with its innovation trend putting its position on top of other organizations in the same industry. The company has also employed its creative culture to create an environment that fosters the right tension and thinking in employees (Alldredge, Johnson, Stoltzfus & Vicere, 2003). For example, the company established the “Post It Note” phenomenon in its operations that has allowed the employees the employees to seek funding from the organization in different departments.

It is important to note that employees are the greatest asset of the company who impact the organization in major ways. Leadership of 3M should consider the inclusion of different incentives in payment plan of the employees.

If more operations are set up in other regions of the world that have different mining activities, it means that the returns will generally increase and that the company will be able to heavily reward its investors. The opportunity present in rewarding employees with incentives is also part of the culture and the structure of employees of the organization.
