Morning ...

From what I understand being creative in the workplace means coming up with very unique and different ways to solve issues or build projects. For example I was part of the student council in my school and every week we would have meetings. Most of the time the meetings would be about how we could raise funds which we'd later on use to plan our annual events. We had to be creative, so we would all brainstorm together and share our ideas.

It was very interesting and inspiring as sharing your ideas or thoughts was very acceptable and the more creative the suggestion was, the more likely we were to do it.

With creativity you sometimes have to think "outside of the box" and not be afraid to sound unrealistic. Most of the time our imagination is unrealistic however there are ways where it can be executed.

The creativity in the workplace is about solving problems and generating innovative ideas that can help a company grow. It’s not limited to artistic expression, it is more about finding new ways to improve processes, solve problems. A truly creative workplace can help employees to share their ideas openly.

  One time I had to be creative was during a team project where we developed an application designed to support environmental sustainability. We needed to come up with unique methods, an impactful name for the app. Our entire team worked together, shared creative ideas to build the app.

This showed me how being creative can make a big difference, especially when everyone is free to share their thoughts and try new things

Creativity at school,uni or anywhere, is really about looking at things differently and finding new ways to solve problems or share ideas. It’s not just about art or anything else it’s about thinking outside the box.

For example, we didn't want to make another video for a history project we must complete for school. I therefore advised dressing up and putting on a show. We role-played key moments to help our students better understand the subject, even though it was a little dangerous. It turned out to be more fun as well. Seeing the impact of the development was a pleasant feeling!

I been dancing for the last 9 years of my life. We trained not only our technic, but also our imagination and creativity. We often did improvisation in classes or were given an assignment to create some dance peace in just a few hours. The one time when i needed to be creative is when i worked as a dance coach in studios i was going to. I was given an assignment to create a trio for younger kids who’s also were going to this studio, it needed to have a theme, some acrobatic and gymnastic elements etc and be 1minute and 30 seconds long. That’s when i created a trio that was called pink panther. I feel like i can proudly call it a creativity in a workplace, dancing itself is almost all about creativity. In my opinion creativity is a very important in almost every community, it getting harder and harder to create something new, people are loads of ideas, it’s just some of them put their ideas in real life and others keep them in their heads.

One time I had to be creative was when I completed a project under tight deadline. I was behind schedule, so I thought breaking the project into small steps and making little steps to reach my deadline

From my point of view, the creative means by making new ways to solve problems or making tasks reachable and easy. It's also coming up with an unusual method to divide up the work or an original concept to get the team excited.

Being creative in a workplace is being able to handle tasks in a certain way that either benefits you, the company, or both at once. It is also about solving problems differently than how the average worker would and as a result of that finishing the task faster, better and easier.

A while ago I had to work as a freeloader, and my objective was to deliver the heavy weight products to the vehicle with a time limit. The way I was working would have taken longer than the time limit so due to that I had to come up with an idea that would both help me with taking the products and also finish before the limit. I came up with the idea to balance the weight and carry as many products as possible with both hands, overworking myself however I was able to finish before time and I had a longer break due to that.

Creativity in the workplace is vital. Working on a project requires one to have a lot of creativity from start to finish. It starts in the brainstorming phase, thinking of ideas and choosing what’s best. Then you also need to be creative throughout the whole process as changes may need to be implemented. But also beyond projects, problems or issues may arise in the workplace and they often need a creative solution.

A time when I had to be creative was in my last semester in high school. It was during finals and I had just submitted my Psychology final report draft. I was told that the theories and studies I used wouldn’t be accepted. I had to quickly find new studies that fit my project, however, I couldn’t. I thought of changing the entire topic but I couldn’t redo my experiment and collect new data in time. That’s when I got the idea of choosing a new topic that would require similar types of data and just use what I already had in a new way. In the end, I redid the whole paper, but with the least amount of work for the situation I was in.

Personally for me, creativity in the workplace means finding new ways to solve some different types of problems or improve the way of work.

So it is about thinking differently and finding better solutions.

The last time I had to be creative in a workplace was during a group project at school. We were given a task and I came up with several ideas on how to approach it. So, we just divided the tasks and completed our project. My part looked the best because I was creative and used different tools to make our presentation look better.

This experience showed me how creativity can help achieve better results

Good Morning,

Madam CEO, I am so happy about the fact that you are interested about such an underrated topic, and I am glad you showed passion for this company by trying to improve on our work. That said, I would absolutely try and help you out as much as I can.

For starters, being creative does not mean being quirky in any way, it can however, range from thinking outside of the box in a metaphorical sense, to coming up with unorthodox solutions out of desperation. As creative thinking works best when under pressure or as mentioned, desperate. It also requires you to be observant and use logic, as creative thinking isn't being illogical.

As you requested for an example, I want to remind you about the time you asked my team for a prototype of the project we were working on, and it was very important as well since it sealed the deal with our company's joint venture. With such a massive task on the line, as well as me being late because I had to deal with an accident on the way, my team was stuck on how they are going to make the device portable because it was being powered with outlets, causing me as well as others on the team to suggest custom made batteries since the team already tried implementing regular ones and failed. We were able to design the custom made to fit the unusual shape of the prototype right before presentation.

I hope this E-mail helped you and gave you some insights into what creative thinking is.

Best Regards,

Ridwan

hello,

From my understanding creativity in the workplace is a neccesary skill. Its much more usefull than people think. Most when thinking about creativity always assume the topic is about drawing or another form of art. Personaly i think that creativity is simpler than that , its just thinking outside the box; such as coming up with new ideas or solving a problem in a new way. For me personaly i use creativity almost everday when at work, for thigs such as small as rearanging my own desk so my workflow is more efficent . Or big as coming up with new ideas that i can pitch it to my boss and possibly get a bigger bonus in result . I reccomend to my fellow employees to sometimes try to use their creativity to think outside to box and not be shy about their thoughts as they may make theirs and other work even more enjoyable .

To me, creativity is all about generating fresh ideas and approaches that shake things up. It might be finding new ways to collaborate, dreaming up innovative products, or figuring out how to make our daily grind smoother. It mostly happens when we're free to be ourselves and use our talents.

In middle school, I had to think on my feet when our drama club needed last minute set decoration for our annual play. I got creative with Using old sheets, paint, and cardboard. I transformed the stage by designing a backdrop that brought the forest vibes . I even managed to create tree cutouts using papers and Christmas lights.

Creativity in the workplace means coming up with fresh ideas to solve problems, improve processes, or develop new projects. It’s about thinking outside the box and not sticking to the same old routines. For me, creativity is key when you’re faced with challenges and need to approach them from different angles.

For example, during a school project, my group had to present on environmental issues. Instead of just using a regular slideshow, we decided to build a simple, interactive website. None of us had much experience in web design, but we learned the basics, divided tasks, and brought our ideas together. The website allowed our classmates to explore different issues at their own pace, making the presentation more engaging and memorable. We also included interactive activities for our classmates to help them better understand the topic. That experience taught me that creativity often comes from stepping out of your comfort zone and trying new approaches.

Mirka, Anna and A Ivko:

The ideas about creativity hits us when we are alone and are having a bad moment in life because that’s when we start thinking with emotions and deep. Creativity in the workplace is so important because it will help the team have more imagination and ideas since not everyone can think about anything in a second as an creative person it doesn’t take that long to think of something creative. Only creative minds can create something with ambition. Creativity's is the reason why innovation exists.

My main attitude to what seems to be creative in a working space is to bring something new to your daily working routine.

The most common thing to mention is that by bringing new ways to surf the information or dealing with tasks in the way that other co-workers don't. Me as an independent artist, I use my creativity every single day. Because the music is a creative sphere where people write their songs about their feelings and emotions by using their creativity skills. Also I am trying to impress everyone when we are working on the same project by bringing innovative and creative ways to deal with the task more efficiently.

To sum up everything that was mentioned before, it could be clearly seen that creativity takes a main role in my life and working spaces. My type of character is suited perfectly into adding creativity into basic work and life in wholesome.
