It also describes the five stages of the creative process: preparation, incubation, insight, evaluation, and elaboration. Further, it discusses barriers to creativity such as resistance to change and lack of recognition.

2. Creativity
Definition of Creativity
• Creativity is the characteristic of a person to generate new
ideas, alternatives, solutions, and possibilities in a unique and
different way.
• Creativity is the ability to conceive something unpredictable,
original and unique.
• It must be expressive, exciting and imaginative.
• It is the mirror of how beautifully a person can think in any

• According to Boden (1998), there are three main types of
creativity, involving different ways of generating the novel ideas:
a) The “combinational” creativity that involves new
combinations of familiar ideas.
b) The “exploratory” creativity that involves the generation of new
ideas by the exploration of structured concepts.
c) The “transformational” creativity that involves the
transformation of some dimension of the structure, so that new
structures can be generated.
6. CREATIVE PROCESS
❖ Preparation : successful creations are
preceded by investigation and information
gathering. It can be achieved by gathering
information from journals, attending meeting
seminars etc.
❖ Incubation : creative person allows their sub
consciousness mind to dwell over tremendous
amount of ideas and information accumulated
during the preparation phase.
❖ Insight : this is the moment when the person is
able to locate solution to their problems.
Generally in most of the cases ideas comes to
person in incremental way. The person
improves on solution slowly and steadily.
7. ❖ Evaluation : this phase is regarded as the
most emotional trying part, when one feels
uncertain and insecure and thinks about
reaction of other people.
❖ Elaboration : this is the most difficult step of
creativity endeavour and requires great self
discipline, dedication and perseverance.

8. BARRIERS TO CREATIVITY
❖ Resistance to change : people just get used to
doing a particular work in customized manner and
they are just opposed to any new idea or change.
❖ Lack of initiative : organizational managers from
top to bottom are just opposed to giving initiative to
their subordinates fearing that it will undermine their
authority.

9. ❖ Fear of something going wrong : many new
ideas may go wrong or prove impractical.
Whenever creative work is to be undertaken the
possibility of success or failure is always there.
❖ Lack of recognition : failure to recognize or
reward creativity acts as de motivating factor.
Hard work put in by creative people must be
compensated with adequate financial and non

Creativity and innovation at work are the process, outcomes,
and products of attempts to develop and introduce new and
improved ways of doing things. The creativity stage of this process
refers to idea generation, and innovation to the subsequent stage of
implementing ideas toward better procedures, practices, or products.
Creativity and innovation can occur at the level of the individual,
work team, organization, or at more than one of these levels
combined, but will invariably result in identifiable benefits at one or
more of these levels-of analysis.
