Creative Leadership: Skills That Drive
Change demonstrates how creative thinking is an
essential element of leadership, especially when bringing about change. In
this engaging book, authors Dr. Gerard J. Puccio,
Mary C. Murdock, and Marie Mance provide a unique combination of conceptual
arguments, practical principles, and proven tools to enhance future leaders’
effectiveness in creating and managing change.
Key Features:
 |
Intimately connects leadership and
creativity: Leadership is now characterized as
the catalyst for change, while creative thinking is the process that leads
to change. This is the first book to make an explicit and elaborate
conceptual link between creativity and leadership. |
|
Utilizes the Creative Problem Solving
process: This book explores the more than 50
years of Creative Problem Solving (CPS) research and application. While
other books focus on creative thinking and CPS, this is the first to offer
a philosophical position that is then followed up with specific principles
and procedures that leaders can employ to deliberately enhance their
effectiveness in creating and managing change. |
|
Promotes “deliberate creativity”:
The authors are all faculty at the International Center for Studies in
Creativity, Buffalo State—State University of New York, internationally
renowned as a leading authority on the topic of Creative Problem Solving.
Their rich experience encourages students to take a proactive approach
toward the production of novel and useful ideas that address a predicament
or opportunity. |

These four books are highly recommend for
creativity training. Use them to spice up and enhance any session that
could benefit from creativity.
Here are four useful resources we recommend
on product innovation and creativity:
