Is Your Organization Creative Enough?

It had better be -- the future belongs to the best ideas, not the best products

A GMJ Q&A with Jim Clifton, Chairman and CEO of Gallup
"To stay competitive, we have to lead the world in per-person creativity." Since Gallup's chairman and CEO, Jim Clifton, uttered that remark in a 2005 Fast Company article, people have often asked him about that statement and its management implications. In this interview, Clifton elaborates on the importance of creativity in business -- why it's a necessity, how to get more of it out of your employees, and how to make the most of what you've got.
