Unleashing Creativity at Work - For Everyone

The word "creative" has been used as an adjective for about 500 years and as a noun for around 200 years. The word "creator" (small c) has only been coined for 11 years (by Youtube).  Each generation has a stronger desire to be identified as creative - 1/3 of Boomers, 1/2 of Millenials, and 2/3 of GenZ.
