The Palgrave Handbook of Creativity at Work

<p>This Handbook provides authoritative up-to-date scholarship and debate concerning creativity at work, and offers a timely opportunity to re-evaluate our understanding of creativity, work, and the pivotal relationship between them. Far from being a new arrival on the scene, the context of work has always been a place shaped and sharpened by creativity, as well as a site that determines, where, when, how, and for whom creativity emerges. Structured in four parts – <i>Working with Creativity</i> (the present); <i>Putting Creativity to Work</i> (in an organizational context); W<i>orking in the Creative Industries</i> (creative labour); and <i>Making Creativity Work</i> (the future) – the Handbook is an inspirational learning resource, helping us to work with creativity in innovative ways. Providing a cutting edge, interdisciplinary, diverse, and critical collection of academic and practitioner insights, this Handbook ultimately conveys a message of hope: if we take better care of creativity, our creativity will better care for us.</p><p></p><p></p>
