Look beyond the social responsibility and feel-good of doing work for charities; they are actually great opportunities to seriously exercise your creative problem-solving skills.
Relative to most businesses and corporations, charities have huge limitations placed upon them. Funds and resources are obvious ones. There is also the established mentality and attitude – one of scarcity, limitations, and stifling compliance.
Working with a charity is the ultimate place to learn to embrace reality. It is the opportunity to seriously look at what is truly possible despite all the limitations. After all, creative problem-solving is about working within constraints.
