Enhancing Creativity: Managing Work Contexts for the High Potential Employee
提出管理者应评估员工的创造潜力，并将高潜力员工安排到能激发创造力的工作环境中，如复杂任务、支持性监督和竞争性同事，以最大化员工创造力。
While traditional approaches to maximizing employee creativity have focused on hiring creative people, more recent perspectives suggest that employees' work environments influence the creativity of their contributions. This article discusses the benefits of integrating these approaches. To ensure the most creative work from employees, managers need to assess the creative potential of each person and then place those with high potential into work contexts that stimulate and nurture it. When firms place people with high creative potential in contexts that offer complex job assignments, supportive and non-controlling supervision, and competitive coworkers, they reap the benefits of maximum employee creativity.
