Trade Journal for Creativity & Transformation (TJCT)
Introduction
Creativity can be defined as "something that is new and useful."
It involves the combining, recombining and rearrangement of new ideas into
novel and significant patterns and relationships (Morfopoulos et al, 2019).
Creativity is a key ingredient to the development of innovation. Innovation
involves forming new and useful solutions to existing problems.
Transformation involves "radical", framebreaking ideas and pracitices.
With this in mind, both students and faculty benefit from its growth as a field.
Through inventions, gained insights, continuous learning and knowledge transfer
generated from innovative transformations, our world is arguably a much better
place (Sessa and London, 2006). One of the most preeimeninent scholars of innovation
of our time, Dr. Murray Millson, co-authored a textbook (Millson and Wilemon, 2008,
https://www.pearson.com/us/higher-education/program/Millson-Strategy-of-Managing-Innovation-and-Technology-The/PGM176522.html)
that we believe provides a recommended comprehensive, highly skilled and well-developed
anthology of innovation, intrapreneurship and technolgy for our readers to review.
Our efforts that follow in no small way extend from and build upon his work.
In the Trade Journal for Creativity & Transformation (TJCT), we focus on twelve (12)
"Challenge Categories" that are defined at the end of this summary. Although
listed in alphabetical order for the purposes of clarification and organization, there
is no "set order" to these categories. Instead, we invite both the student,
the instructors, the poets, the artists, the dreamers and the innovators to join us in
defining and redefining these key terms: creativity and transformation. By continuously
revising and building upon our mutually agreed upon, defined understandings of that which
is creative, or even transformational in such fields as alternative energy and the environment,
diversity and multiculturalism and other fields, we can work towards building an open source
(freely used) "incubator" that we can all share (Wallas, 1926). In other words, we
can develop our own "customized think-tank in cyberspace." Come join us…
Mission of the Trade Journal for Creativity & Transformation (TJCT)
The mission of the Trade Journal for Creativity & Transformation (TJCT) is to promote the
field of creativity and innovation, primarily at no cost to the public. Through the development
and sharing of information related to the Challenge Categories proposed, students, teachers,
advocates and practitoners can collaborate within the field of innovation.
Vision of the Trade Journal for Creativity & Transformation (TJCT)
The vision of the Trade Journal for Creativity & Transformation (TJCT)- or its anticipated or
hoped for direction- is to be the "premier source for knowledge transfer for creativity and
innovation over the Web regionally, nationally and globally."
Specific Goals of the Journal
Goal One (1): To Redfine the Field:
We believe that both students and teachers are in a postion to share their unique and valued
knowledge of their own creative processes at this time. We expect and invite such contributions
to "fill in the blanks." We consider this continuous teacher/student relationship as
necessary for the process of "Creativity Reimagined": Creativity based on synergy and
open-minded combinations of productive ideas, thoughts and imagery.
Goal Two (2): To Establish a Common Internship Program
The Innovation Netowrk, through a unique combination of advocates, educators, practitoners and
academicians, is in the process of developing and refining internships that will faciliate the
emergence of a common "incubator" for innovation between and among the colleges.
Goal Three (3): To Develop an "Innovation Incubator"
By forming and recombining new and useful relationships between networks of different types of
members within and between different areas or "Challenge Categories," we hope and expect
to generate the "prototype" or beginnings of "The Ocean." The Ocean is a metaphor
here for the organization that will be based on the collaborations of all the participants that
take part in this initiative. The Trade Journal for Creativity & Transformation (TJCT) is designed
with the purpose of providing the initial blueprint of this proposed organization for creative and
innovative collaborations over the Web in twelve (12) key "Challenge Categories." We
believe this alphabetized list of categories provides an ideal framework for integrating collaborative
efforts to enhance both knowledge transfer and provide a well-structured, readily understood,
measureable and replicable foundation for innovative practices.
We ask the potential viewers of the Journal to also consider the following: if you are still undecided
about your level of interest in the Journal keep in mind the marketability of innovation. It is a known
fact that innovative graduates enjoy greater pay, increased promotions and greater career mobility
(Morfopoulos and Roth, 1996). This benefit is even greater when considering the success of future
entrepreneurs: continuous innovation is the key to entrepreneurial success. Here are some typical
categories of potential contributors:
-
Academicians: Scholars will provide the executive screening level of the Trade Journal for
Creativity & Transformation (TJCT)’s articles and/or other approved mediums of communication
included in the Trade Journal for Creativity & Transformation (TJCT).
-
Practitioners: Practitioners who adhere to a triple bottom-line philosophy (doing well while
doing good while adhering to sustainability) will represent the practical and bottom-line requirements
for innovative contributions to the journal.
-
Advocates and/or Students: While the second and third levels of peer review may overlap, it
should not be overlooked (although it often is) that "learning should more be conducive to the
needs of the students and/or consumers rather than the whims and fancies of the teachers who are
responsible for enlightening them." With this in mind, advocates and/or students will be the
deciding voice if/when there is a disagreement between the scholar and practitioner reviewers regarding
submissions for publication or other inclusions.
General Description
The Trade Journal for Creativity & Transformation (TJCT) is a a quarterly, peer-reviewed journal
that explores, analyzes and prescribes recommendations based on improved adaptations of the Graham
Wallas 1926 four stage Theory of Creativity:
- Research
- Incubation
- Illumination
- Verification
https://students.education.unimelb.edu.au/selage/pub/readings/creativity_insights/UTC%20stage%20models%20of%20creativity%20.pdf
Augmenting this theory is the notion that research is proceeded by passion, and that verification
is ideally followed by either incremental and/or systemic or transformational change.
The Structure of the Trade Journal for Creativity & Transformation (TJCT)
The Trade Journal for Creativity & Transformation (TJCT) will primarily be comprised of peer-reviewed,
refereed case studies, exploratory pieces, investigative journalism work, and other novel written discourse

Here are the twelve (12) Challenge Categories of the TRN defined and then referenced:
-
Alternative Energy and the Environment
Refers to non-traditional, environmentally sound energy sources such as wind power,
solar power, and /or hydroelectric power. If properly harnessed, these sources of
power represent viable alternatives for future energy consumption.
Environmental Studies:
Environmental Studies includes under its umbrella a variety of subcategories:
-
Agriculture
The process of growing and harvesting food products for consumption;
-
Water
The process of properly eliminating sewage and contaminants from water
supplies- this often involves water purification procedures;
-
ForestryThe proper and responsible practice of logging and tree
conservation and replenishment;
-
General Waste Management
This includes but is not limited to a variety of recycling procedures to
preserve precious resources while also protecting the surrounding environment.
-
Diversity and Multiculturalism
Diversity-refers to the symbiotic synergism, or the realization of collective
talents of an integration of different types of individuals. Through diversity
an organization, community, and ultimately a society becomes more productive,
innovative, and empathetic.
Multiculturalism
Refers to the acknowledgement and celebration of diverse cultures. The hallmark of
multiculturalism is an underlying respect for the distinctness and uniqueness that
each culture contributes.
-
Education and Business Literacy
Refers to the challenge of providing basic and even advanced business training on
a universal level. Business education involves the transfer of knowledge from the
teacher to the student through learning. With the emergence of distance learning,
teaching methods have been expanded in a manner that can reach remote locations,
nontraditional students, and persons with disabilities throughout the world. The
potential result is that the world is now more of a connected "learning
organization" than ever before.
-
Entrepreneurial Opportunities for Diverse Backgrounds
Due to such factors as discrimination and unmet needed accommodations, both people
with visible and invisible disabilities have often been marginalized from participating
in traditional forms of employment. The opportunity to start one’s own business
offers some unique advantages to persons with disabilities, especially in this age of
Internet marketing. For example, people who are classifiable as being persons with
disabilities can provide themselves with their own accommodations in the workplace
since they will be self-employed.
-
Here is a social entrepreneurship text whose primary author is Dr. Manuel London, the
Dean of the School of Business at the State University of New York at Stony Brook:
https://books.google.com/books/about/Social_Entrepreneurship.html?id=NXdp0BdSgs0C
-
Women
Women have often been discriminated against in the workplace despite their abilities
for no legitimate reason. As such, entrepreneurship provides one employment alternative
that provides a viable path for success for many women.
-
Here is regional organization that we recommend as an example of an excellent
Women’s Entrepreneurship Advocacy Organization:
https://scwbec.org/.
-
The Formerly Incarcerated
People deserve at least the opportunity for redemption once they have paid their debt
to society. Often these individuals are caught in a "Catch-22": not having
the chance to lead a normal life once rehabilitated. Providing them with an entrepreneurial
vocational path can alleviate this dilemma.
-
Here is an organization that helps the formerly incarcerated find employment:
https://www.prisonfellowship.org/resources/training-resources/reentry-ministry/on-going-ministry/helping-ex-prisoners-find-jobs/
-
Retirees
People who are retired potentially offer a vast, presently untapped source of mentorship
that can be provided both in-person and/or virtually either over the Web or through such
technology as "Zoom" (see https://www.zoom.com)
or Video Conference. This mentorship can be academic in the form of tutoring, scholarly
in the form of publications or Editorships, and/or practical in the form of business and
even life experience.
-
Finance
Funding the Social Venture and Accounting- The greatest challenge that generally faces
entrepreneurs, especially social entrepreneurs, is how to obtain seed money to start and
maintain their new business. By uncovering, discovering, and evaluating different potential
forms of funding for the entrepreneur, the vast potential of "entrepreneurs who are on
a mission" can be realized.
-
Health, Medical, Nutrition and Bioethics
-
Health
Refers to preventative measures that enable individuals to minimize the likelihood
of illness or disease.
-
Medical
Refers to various practices and specializations of medicine. Examples include pharmacology,
neurology, and oncology. The need for proper medical care is a universal necessity. Often
different levels of care are available to individuals based on their ability to afford treatment.
Currently millions of people, both in impoverished nations as well as in developed countries such
as the United States, live without proper medical care.
Here is an example of a doctor that we highly recommend based on his ethical and engaging
treatment of patients:
https://www.vitals.com/doctors/1nqc2g/mark-gresser
Nutrition
The proper intake of food and nourishment in a manner that prevents, eliminates, or at
least minimizes such conditions as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, malnutrition,
and cancer. In recent times there has been much attention placed on the health risks associated
with excessive use of sugar, carbohydrates, and preservatives. From a general global assessment,
obesity is starting to impact longevity as much as malnutrition. There has also been a recent
re-examination of the benefits of organic foods that are made without preservatives.
Bioethics
Refers to the proper use and appropriate development of enforceable policies related to the
biotechnology industry. Such controversial subjects as "designer babies", cloning, and
"super crops" warrant careful and decisive collective review and vision of society at
large. Here is one of the premier institutes of bioethics:
https://www.thehastingscenter.org/
-
Intrapreneurship
Intrapreneurship can be defined as the process and practice of acting
"entrepreneurially" or creatively with a purpose while still being an employee
of someone else’s company. An example is the work done with "post-its" at
3M (3M, Arthur Fry and Spencer Silver, 1974). Product innovativeness has been found to be
a key moderator variable by leading scholars in the Intrapreneurship field
(e.g., Millson, 2013, pp. 317-318).
-
Nonprofits & Advocacy
This includes human services administrators, advocates, social workers for human
services facilities and agencies, and the general public that provide knowledge
of best practices and issues related to human services, advocacy and socially
responsible nonprofit initiatives.
-
Responsible Housing
-
Accessible Housing
This refers to the degree that the housing is accessible to people with disabilities.
-
Affordable Housing
There are two types of affordability related to housing.
-
The first is direct affordability. This refers to the cost of the actual design,
construction, and maintenance of the dwelling structure.
-
The second type is indirect affordability. This refers to the costs of living
associated with living in a certain location, such as the cost of shops or markets
(if any exist), schools (if any exist), and employment opportunities
-
Sustainable Housing
This refers to the degree the housing is environmentally sustainable.
The European responsible housing initiative emphasizes sustainable practices:
http://www.responsiblehousing.eu/en/
-
Responsible Management and Marketing
The practices of Responsible Management and Marketing go beyond the practice of
pro-diversity employment initiatives to include management and marketing practices
that are socially entrepreneurial and intrapreneurial in nature.
Here is a discussion related to corporate responsibility and ethical management
from the perspective of MBA students:
https://www.unprme.org/resource-docs/PRMEMBAStudentStudy.pdf
-
Responsible Science & Engineering and Technology

multi-operationalized (as adapted from Kerlinger, 1985).
Here is an initiative for responsible science:
https://www.responsiblescience.at/
-
Responsible Engineering
Responsible engineering encompasses such fields as Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering,
Electrical Engineering and Chemical Engineering. *
-
Civil Engineering
Can be defined as "a profession which provides controls over the design, construction,
maintenance and improvements of the world’s roads, bridges, buildings, travel controls,
etc." Civil engineering is often considered the oldest of all the engineering professions
and requires knowledge of "route surveying," strength of materials, construction
safety, etc.
-
Mechanical Engineering
Can be defined as the practical use of friction, motion, gravity, strength of materials, etc.
which are all explored by the mechanical engineer using the concepts of pressure, temperature,
moisture, etc. The automobile industry, air and naval, as well as the mechanical factories, are
the mainstays of this field of engineering.
-
Electrical Engineering
Can be defined as engineers trained to make the best use of the planet’s natural resources.
This can be accomplished by the conversion of these resources into a usable and ideally recyclable
form of energy. Prime examples include hydro, solar and
wind power.
-
Chemical Engineering
Can be defined as engineering relating to the design and operationalization of industrial
chemicals; this often takes place in industrial chemical plants.
To summarize engineers, are best suited to "make usable" the sources of energy
available on this planet.
** Engineering definitions are adapted from the conceptual framework provided by retired
Civil Engineer Charles J. Morfopoulos (NYSDOT, November 20, 2019).

This involves any efforts that are substantial yet transcend the ready classification
of the other eleven (11) categories. It showcases spotlights and scenarios based on
learning from the skills and virtues of previous innovators. Here will be our first
to consider in our Journal Blog:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYB4rPOWC3o
Albert Einstein stated that imagination is more important than knowledge. If we all
work together here and allow each other to innovate together as a collaborative,
collegial team, we believe that we can all have the best of both. Do you the readers
agree or disagree? Why?
We now invite viewers of all ages, levels of education, backgrounds, nationalities
and countries to join us….
