Managing creativity: a Japanese model
通过访谈日本企业管理者，发现他们通过结构性手段管理员工创造力，旨在提升动机、工作满意度和团队合作，而非直接追求经济效果，并与北美建议系统形成对比。
Executive Overview Dr. Min Basadur visited several major companies in Japan to conduct comparative research on organizational creativity. Unexpected insights emerged during interviews with Japanese managers and are the basis for this article. These managers knew a great deal about North American motivational theory and how to implement it. Employee creativity is managed through deliberate structural means, not to effect direct economic outcomes, but to develop motivation, job satisfaction, and teamwork. Contrasts to North American suggestion systems are made.
