.Abstract
Recent trends in scientific discovery and the technological application of these research findings, have greatly increased the importance of the research scientist's role in industry. In some of our largest industries, scientifc leadership now seems to be an essential requisite for continued economic well being. It has also become increasingly evident that even our national security and survival might depend upon the capacity of American science to be creative and productive. The scientific creativity necessary to meet
these pressing demands is, in the final analysis, incumbent upon the individual research scientist. It is not enough that he have the essential training, skills, aptitudes, and motivation for his job; there must also be a certain added ingredient that is beyond the more conventional job requirements. It is the capacity to conceptualize and apply new, original, and constructively creative ideas in the solution of the increasingly complex and unusual problems of modern industry.
