Create and manage an environment that promotes innovation
Creative business ideas set companies apart from one another. Without creativity and innovation, every company would follow the same patterns in marketing/promotion, technique, or even the goods and services they may be selling. Creativity is crucial for businesses today, especially when the market is dependent on innovative, breaking technology. The collaboration of creative minds has the ability to push creative business ideas into reality. Once your business brain is able to think outside the box, the possibilities are endless. Now that we’ve established how important creativity is to business success, it is only fair that employees have the opportunity to channel their inner creative mind. http://blog.catmedia.com/creativity-its-important-for-your-business
