    The four domains that ideas can be classified into are based on two axes, idealistic to realistic and creative to conservative. Using this as a base the four conceptual domains for ideas to be classified in is as follows: creative realism, creative idealism, conservative realism, and conservative idealism. On the creative side of the quadrant you have realistic and idealistic, creative realism addresses highly creative ideas about a feasible concept. Creative idealism are highly creative ideas but do not address real concepts. Conservative realism is the opposing side to the quadrant where traditionally used methods and ideas are applied to real concepts and conservative idealism uses traditionally used methods and ideas applied to ideas that are not realistic to begin with. How the ideas are placed in these four quadrants greatly depends on the team’s definition of creative, realistic, idealistic, and conservative. What is creative for one may not be for all so the same idea could be classified in different quadrants depending on the team that is categorizing it.

Workplace creativity is something that I have never given much thought to when it comes to the ability of the company to be able to be productive and profitable. Sure, you can measure creativity and I know that there is testing that can help to determine what a person's social and personality traits are.  The four conceptual domains into which new ideas can be classified are creative realism, conservative realism, creative idealism, and conservative idealism. Realism focuses on the structure of an idea, something that can be actually formed with factual thought.  Idealism is often detached and sometimes has a tendency to have an emotional connection that perpetuates the differences between realism and idealism.  Then you have creativity and conservativism. Conservative viewpoints are often followed by a traditional role and are not one that tends to branch out and come up with new ideas.  This type of thinking is one that does not like change and will try and st...
