I think one problem for software development organisations is the idea that the purpose of the process is to scale up development activities and remove the dependency to the individual instead of using the potential of the individual.
I see software development as an highly innovative process, because you are about to solve a problem that has not been solved before (at least as far as you know when you are facing the problem). If you knew of a solution allready available, then no development should most likely take place you would just use what is allready available.
Therefore, I would suggest that we search for guidence in areas where innovation and creativity take place.
