    {
      "heading": "What the literature establishes",
      "point": "Teresa Amabile (1979, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology) experimentally examined the effect of expected external evaluation on the creativity of artistic work."
    },
    {
      "heading": "The mechanism: seeking a solution or anticipating a judgement",
      "point": "Teresa Amabile (1983, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology) proposes a model distinguishing domain-relevant skills, creativity-relevant processes and task motivation."

    {
      "heading": "The premature conclusion",
      "point": "One might conclude that unfinished work should be kept away from the manager."
    },
    {
      "heading": "What the evidence cannot promise",
      "point": "An experiment involving artistic work cannot directly predict how a federal department, a public health organisation or a business will operate."
    },
    {
      "heading": "A practical check in Berne",
      "point": "Within SHR’s “Building an effective relationship with your manager” programme, an exercise applicable in Berne is to state in writing, before presenting a draft, whether the discussion is intended for exploration, selection or approval, along with any non-negotiable constraints."
