Have you seen this new
study released by Adobe(Nasdaq:ADBE)? They interviewed 5000 people about creativity from the following countries: United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France, and Japan. The findings show that even though 80% believe creativity is an integral part to economic growth, only 25% believe they are using their full creative ability. The study also touches on workplace creativity, education concerns, and creativity ranking within countries.
I found this study absolutely fascinating. I thought it was a little sad that only 52% of Americans believe they are creative. What do you think? Are you part of the 25% who believe they are living to their full creative potential?

Great post! Very enlightening.
ReplyDeleteI felt the same - sad that only 52% think they are creative. The 48% need a tiny bit of confidence in that area, that's all!
ReplyDeleteWow! This is a good reminder to cultivate the imagination and praise the projects of my children.
ReplyDeleteMichelle L,
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, that 48% just needs a little push in the right direction. The study also addresses that everyone has the ability to be creative but it does have to be cultivated in some way.
