Abstract

Creativity has become a major issue for organizations and their managers alike. While it is acknowledged that creative capability exists within organizations, we tend to focus solely on what fosters it, thus neglecting creativity in contexts of openness. With the help of numerous case studies from open organizations, The Creative Capabilities of Open Organizations analyzes the way in which creative capabilities are developed. The book puts into perspective the abundant but solid literature on the creative capability of particularly exciting and instructive industries, such as the outdoor sports industry, the music industry, and the video game industry. It holistically treats openness, going beyond a purely external view by analyzing cases illustrating intra-organizational openness.
