Creativity for Innovation Management is a rigorous yet applied guide
which illustrates what creativity is, why it matters, and how it can be
developed at both individual and group levels. Unlike many
technique-oriented books, this book will combine theory and practice,
drawing on the latest research in psychology, organizational behaviour,
innovation and entrepreneurship.
This exciting new text outlines the necessary skills and competences for
innovative and creative processes. It provides opportunities to explore
these and also to develop them via a wide variety of activities linked
to relevant tools and techniques, as well as a range of case studies. By
working through key competence areas at personal and then team levels,
students then have an opportunity to practice and enhance these skills.
This will be complemented by online resources which will provide
students with access to key tools and techniques plus activities to help
develop their creativity. This textbook is ideal for students of
innovation, management and entrepreneurship, as well as professionals in
those industries that want to excel by developing and applying their own
creativity at work.
