David Burkus on Myths of Creativity - The Creative Mind | The Creative Mind | Scoop.it

Author David Burkus addresses many of the myths of creativity, which often get in the way of personal creative work, and business innovation.

 

"We say we want more creativity, but when we are presented with new ideas, we have a hard time recognizing their utility. This is something I see in almost all organizations.”

Douglas Eby's insight:

In an audio clip in this article, psychologist Heidi Grant Halvorson, host of The Science of Thriving conference http://bit.ly/19YUD7T interviews David Burkus, who talks about the "Eureka" myth of creative inspiration, and about incubation.
