Managing collective creativity: Organizational variables to support creative teamwork
基于时尚纺织设计和设计咨询两个行业的案例研究,识别出五个支持团队集体创造力的组织变量:结构化流程、团队多样性、边界开放、充足资源和相关技术支持。
Abstract This article explores the role of organizational variables in managing and supporting collective creativity, based on case studies developed through collaborative research projects in two industries: fashion textile design and design consultancy. The findings indicate that five distinct variables may support teams and groups in developing their (collective) creativity: a structured process, work‐related team diversity, boundary openness, adequate resources, and support of relevant technology. The results provide new scientific understanding of collective creativity in organizations, and suggest future research directions, with recommendations for creative companies seeking to support collective creativity.
