, Creativity: the ability to come up with Indicators of creative performance:
ideas, problem solutions, or insights that are both
1. Fluency: the number of non‐
novel and appropriate within a given domain (e.g.,
redundant ideas
Amabile, 1996).
2. Originality: uncommonness
Appropriate but not novel: routine, non‐
exceptional 3. Flexibility: the number of content/cognitive
categories
Novel but inappropriate: useless, non‐
functional

Three theoretical approaches to creativity:
→ Stimulating innovation & creativity in the workplace requires attention to conditions influencing
employees’ cognitive thinking skills, motivation, and affective tone and level of activation.

Cognitive Approach
Brain gymnastics: using different categories of knowledge to generate ideas and combine seemingly
unrelated ideas




Creative cognition (Flinke et al., 1992).

, Challenge:

Stimulate creativity: Kill creativity:

Matching people with the right Not trying to obtain the information
assignments necessary to make good connections
between people and jobs
Not too little that employees feel bored, but
not so much that they feel overwhelmed
(threatened by a loss of control)

Freedom:

Stimulate creativity: Kill creativity:

People are more creative if they are given Change goals frequently or fail to define
freedom to decide how to climb a particular them clearly
mountain
Granting autonomy in name only; the
Autonomy around the process process is actually predefined, while
heightens intrinsic motivation & the claiming it is not
sense of ownership, fostering creativity

Don’t let them choose which mountain to
climb → clearly specified strategic goals
enhance creativity

It is difficult to work creatively towards
a moving target

Resources:


“Money doesn't necessarily stop people from being creative, but in many
situations, it doesn't help.”

Stimulate creativity: Kill creativity:

Time pressure can (in some situations) Fake deadlines → distrust
heighten creativity → increase creativity by
Impossible or tight deadlines → burnout
increasing the time-related challenge

high morale
1. Share excitement over the goal
Although no efforts towards creative

contributions

Supervisory encouragement:

Stimulate creativity: Kill creativity:

Generously recognize creative work before Specific extrinsic rewards for certain
even the impacts/results are known outcomes

Serve as role models, and encourage Habit of critically reacting to new ideas →
collaboration & communication often even professionally rewarding

Culture of evaluation leads to:

Focus on extrinsic rewards

Climate of fear → undermining intrinsic
motivation

Organizational support:

Stimulate creativity: Kill creativity:

Reward creativity Reward with money to “bribe” people to
come up with creative ideas
Information sharing & collaboration support
all three components of creativity Political problems → work is threatened by
others’ agendas

Obstructs open communication &
information flows


Affective Approach (De Dreu et al. 2010)
Moderate levels of activation lead to:
