When Creativity is Like a Bikini on a Boar Hog

Wednesday, July 21st, 2010

There is quite a bandwagon rolling right now about Creativity. 5 years ago it seemed that Creativity was a bad word. You could never say it aloud at a corporation because what it meant wasn't new ideas, it was interpreted as "lack of control" or, even worse, those touchy-feely things that ...
