As you may understand one cannot force someone to think innovatively. In my company in an effort to foster innovative thinking among the employees, I have started screening movies (every Saturday) like Steve Jobs, A man who knew infinity – Ramanujan, A beautiful mind – John Nash and it’s making a small dent by elevating the level of thinking.

Common themes observed from these three highly successful people are:

* Intelligent
* Down-to-earth
* Resilient
* Supportive spouse
* Effort taking
* Creative
* Major Health Issue
