An innovative organization needs to tolerate ________ because creative ideas sometimes seem foolish at first

A) mismanagement
B) the impractical
C) conflict
D) inefficiency

Answer: B
Explanation: Creative people often go through a number of wild or outlandish ideas before they hit on an idea that works. For this reason, an innovative organization should have high tolerance for the impractical, making that the correct response. Tolerating ambiguity, conflict, or inefficiency may produce creative conditions, but none of these choices involves the ability of an organization to accept seemingly foolish ideas, so they are incorrect.
