　　創新的體現

　　創新體現在經濟增長。近幾十年來，創新在經濟發展中起到了舉足輕重的作用。創新可以帶來更高的生産率，在輸入不變的前提下産生更多輸出。生産率變高，更多的産品和服務被生産出來，經濟也随之增長。18世紀蒸汽機的發展就是一個典型的例子。蒸汽機的使用實現了大規模生産，通過鐵路徹底改變了交通。最近的互聯網也是一個例子，它改變了個人和公司的運作方式，開拓新的市場、新的工作和生活方式。另外，發達國家的創新技術有助于解決急迫問題，比如提供飲用水和消滅被忽視的疾病。

　　創新體現在團隊合作。團隊成員交流思想和知識，因此，團隊的力量大于個人力量之和。與此相關的例子是籃球運動員邁克爾·喬丹。三年中，當喬丹拿到均場34分以上時，他的隊伍沒有赢得NBA總冠軍；但當喬丹拿到均場30分時，他的隊伍赢得了共計六次NBA總冠軍。喬丹的隊伍之所以能赢得冠軍，正是因為整支隊伍的重點從喬丹的個人得分變成了團隊整體得分。

　　創新體現在多種形式。創新既可以是生活中從未出現過的新産品，也可以是對已有産品的改進。創新可以是進化，也可以是變革。擁有适應性的創新型人才會産生原創的想法，因為現有的事物需要進化，他們會提出變革的、原創的想法來挑戰現有的模式。進化式創新來源于具有原創想法的創新型人才，這更符合現有範式；變革式創新包含提出創新想法，這是對現有範式的挑戰。

　　創新型人才的品質

　　實現創新需要運用天賦。人們擁有天賦，但他們的天賦沒有得到發展和重視，因此有的人不會發現天賦的存在，也不會知道應該如何運用天賦。所以，我們需要為人們創造空間，幫助他們實現才能。

　　創新型人才具有堅持不懈的品質。堅持不懈是創新型人才具有的最偉大的特性之一，它被定義為不問回報，不斷地為目标奮鬥。創新型人才對目标充滿激情，并緻力于實現目标，這使得他們擁有強大的毅力，即使遇到挑戰、挫折和失敗也不會放棄。在過去的研究中，我發現創新型人才具有這種品質，他們有能力控制注意力、控制行為、控制情緒。

　　創造力和堅持不懈共同構成了創新。想成為創新型人才，首先要有毅力，在困難面前繼續實現目标。創新大約等于10%的創造力和90%的堅持。正如剛才所說，堅持不懈是創新型人才具有的最偉大的特性之一，它是神聖的，它對創新至關重要，它是創新型人才和非創新型人才之間最大的區别之一。

　　創新不僅需要毅力，還需要時間。遇到困難時，創新型人才不會放棄，但會從專注的、堅持的态度轉變為非專注的、順其自然的态度。如果長時間無法解決一個問題，他們可能會通過睡眠來進行休息。睡眠令他們的意識更具有靈活性，讓他們的潛意識有時間看到更廣闊的場景。從不同角度看待問題有助于找到更好的辦法。

　　創新誕生于一段時間的思考。考慮用不同的方式構建問題，探索不同的解決方法，創新才會誕生。在申請戴森吸塵器的專利之前，詹姆斯·戴森開發了超過5000個原型機；在《白雪公主和七個小矮人》成為大熱之前，華特·迪士尼做了将近20年的動畫片。

　　我想給予你們兩個建議。首先，創新并不容易，所以當你遇到苦難、陷入困境的時候，千萬不要停下來。試着提出更多的想法或替代方法，你的下一個創意可能比你想象中的還要好。另外，實現創新需要時間，堅持是成功的關鍵。挫折、失敗和陷入困境都是過程的一部分。記住，創新大約等于10%的創造力和90%的堅持。

　　這就是我今天想分享的内容。謝謝大家，祝大家一切順利。

　　Hello. Im Prof. Melhuish, professor of Human Development from the University of Oxford. First, let me offer my congratulations to the announcement of the International School Brand Value Ranking and international school with an innovative competitive ranking. I give my best wishes to the listed schools. KingLead rankings are very valuable, professional and innovative. It is the first ranking for international schools in China. It sets the evaluation standard for international schools and provides a good reference for Chinese families who want to apply to colleges in the U.S. or the U.K.. And further, it promotes the cultivation of innovators.

　　Embodiment of innovation

　　Innovation is reflected in economic growth. In recent decades, innovation has played a decisive role in economic development. Innovation can bring higher productivity and produce more output under the premise of constant input. As productivity increases, more products and services are produced, and the economy grows. The development of steam engine in the 18th century is a typical example. The use of steam engine has realized large-scale production and completely changed the traffic through the railway. The recent Internet is another example. It has changed the way individuals and companies operate, opening up new markets, new ways of working and living. In addition, innovative technologies in developed countries can help solve urgent problems, such as providing drinking water and eliminating neglected diseases.

　　Innovation is embodied in teamwork. Team members exchange ideas and knowledge, so the strength of the team is greater than the sum of individual strength. A related example is basketball player Michael Jordan. In three years, when Jordan got more than 34 points per game, his team did not win the NBA championship; But when Jordan averaged 30 points per game, his team won a total of 6 NBA championships. The reason why Jordans team can win the championship is that the focus of the whole team has changed from individual to team.

　　Innovation takes many forms. Innovation can be either a new product that has never appeared in life, or an improvement on an existing product. Innovation can be evolution or change. Innovators with adaptability will generate original ideas. Because existing things need to evolve, they will put forward innovative and original ideas to challenge the existing models. Evolutionary innovation comes from innovators with original ideas, which is more in line with the existing paradigm; Revolutionary innovation involves creating original ideas, which is a challenge to the existing paradigm.

　　Quality of innovators

　　Innovation requires talent. People have talent, but their talent has not been developed and valued. Therefore, some people will not find the existence of talent and will not know how to use it. So we need to create space for people to help them realize their talents.

　　Innovators have the quality of perseverance. Persistence is one of the greatest characteristics of innovators. It is defined as striving for goals without asking for returns. Innovators are passionate about their goals and are committed to achieving them, which makes them have strong perseverance and will not give up even in the face of challenges, setbacks and failures. In the past research, I found that innovators have this quality. They have the ability to control attention, behavior and emotion.

　　Creativity and perseverance together constitute innovation. To become an innovative talent, we must first have perseverance and continue to achieve our goals in the face of difficulties. Innovation is about 10% creativity and 90% persistence. As just said, perseverance is one of the greatest characteristics of innovators. It is sacred. It is crucial to innovation. It is one of the biggest differences between innovators and non-innovators.

　　Innovation requires not only perseverance but also time. When encountering difficulties, innovators will not give up, but will change from a focused and persistent attitude to a non focused and natural attitude. If they cant solve a problem for a long time, they may sleep to rest. Sleep makes their consciousness more flexible and gives their subconscious mind time to see a broader scene. Looking at problems from different perspectives helps to find better ways.

　　Innovation comes from thinking for a period of time. Consider building problems in different ways and explore different solutions, and innovation will be born. Before applying for the patent of Dyson vacuum cleaner, James Dyson developed more than 5000 prototypes; Walt Disney produced cartoons for nearly 20 years before his first big hit Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

　　I want to give you two suggestions. First of all, innovation is not easy, so when you encounter difficulties and difficulties, do not stop. Try to come up with more ideas or alternatives. Your next idea may be better than you think. In addition, innovation takes time, and persistence is the key to success. Setbacks, failures and dilemmas are all part of the process. Remember, innovation is about 10% creativity and 90% persistence.

　　Thats my final message for the day. Thank you for your attention and my best wishes to you all.
