Our constantly turbulent world raises the bar for personal contributions in the workplace repeatedly. Everyone is being asked to be more creative, to think and to do things differently to achieve extraordinary results for their organizations and for themselves. Despite this need and despite all this attention, too many people either don't see themselves as creative, don't know how to be effectively creative, or don't know what to do to be keep their creative edge. LevesqueÂ’s new book provides definitive answers to the creativity dilemma and offers new groundbreaking perspectives on creativity.
In this book, author shows that creativity, like intelligence, exists in a variety of forms and demonstrates that high-performance organizations need to make use of creativity in all its dimensions.

Levesque defines creativity as the ability to consistently produce different and valuable results. This point of view provides a valuable perspective on creativity, because to effectively create you need to have the ability to generate ideas and implement them. This new perspective and new definition focuses on effective creativity: creativity that translates ideas into action. It breaks down the monolithic approach to creativity: one size does not fit all. There is no one best way to be creative.
