ABSTRACT
This chapter presents the neurological evidence for dreams as one of three levels of consciousness. It offers the link between the brain's use of imagery as its primary mode of processing and imagery as offered in its dream state. The chapter outlines a methodology for enabling creativity and innovation within organizations, a methodology that frees persons from the security needs that inhibit such thinking. It describes how the ongoing work in social dreaming is the ideal methodology for unleashing creativity and innovation within groups and organizations. A key element in the efficacy of using dream intelligence in organizations is the fact that there are striking parallels between the way in which individuals process information and the manner in which organizations manage knowledge. The chapter focuses on how linking an organization's cognitive, emotional, and dream intelligence can lead to increased organizational intelligence. Intelligence is derived from three states of conscious processing and numerous states of non-attended processing.
