Creative Environment
The environment within which we function – at work, at home, in society at large – can support or inhibit creativity.
Are you challenged enough?
Do people listen to and respect others’ ideas?
Do you have enough time to explore new ideas and approaches?
Do you feel emotionally safe?
These and other factors are part of the environment within which we function. When present, they can help maximize the level of individual and team creativity. Their absence can negatively impact us intellectually and emotionally, stunting our functioning creativity.
Creative environment can be evaluated and improved. Many businesses are founded on improving business environments to enhance creativity and innovation. Goran Ekvall of Sweden is pivotal researcher on the topic of creative climate and environment.
