While creativity is intangible, you can see the results of it in your company's improvements and innovations.The first five chapters provide an overview of creativity, outline the six essential elements that creativity requires. In the following chapters, the authors detail the six elements, provide several case studies to illustrate their points and show how to achieve each aspect of creativity. This is a useful book for any executive who wants his or her company, and the people in it, to realize their full creative potential. getAbstract recommends this book to managers and executives in any industry.
