So, back to the idea of Pirates as innovators. As I said there are five language aspects that relate to innovation. This first one is the language of Curiosity. Pirates would never have survived, never have created a new way to be in the world with the desire to explore the world. Curiosity is just that, a desire to explore, to find out, to examine and test. It is this drive that pushes Pirates to leave the known world behind and to go where the map is marked "There be monsters here."
Curiosity pushes Pirates, leaders, explorers, innovators and learners to sail away from the shore into the open ocean in order to find new possibilities. Listen to the language of an innovative Pirate, listen for the hints of curiosity. Does she wonder about life? Does she ask how and why? Does she eschew the familiar path for, perfering to blaze a new trail? Does the routine leave her bored?
How do you find an innovator? Listen for the language of curiosity. This will be the first hint.
Next...courage.
