1. 27 Characteristics of
Creativity
Creativity is a broad concept, which is required in all cases. Characteristics of
creativity are not equal to all. It differs from person to person. Yet,
Characteristics of creativity can be improved through initiatives. Higher
achievements can be achieved through entrepreneurial management ideas,
problem-solving and creative ideas through strategic ideas.
2. Characteristics of creativity
• So, what features do they have that stand out from the rest of their
population? From my observation (though I have not examined these
claims), there are some key characteristics of creative people that
they use to plan, construct, implement, and maintain what they have
chosen to do.
3. 1. New Ideas Innovation
• Creativity creates new ideas. Initiatives or initiatives, strategies,
policies, problem-solving and new ideas for managers and employees
are taken into consideration. The creation of commercial value is the
goal of innovation. The value may be described in a variety of ways,
including cost reduction, the development of completely new goods
and services, and small adjustments to already existing ones.
4. 2. Positive attitude
A positive attitude is essential for thinking creatively, because it is this
positivity that motivates the mind to look for details, wonder, and
actually find solutions. My previous point about this intense curiosity is
strongly linked. A person who negatively shuts off potential possibilities
and does not look at the world around them with such wonderful
surprises.
5. 3. Fearlessness
This is an interesting character because highly creative people tend to
believe in the VALUE of the ideas they come up with. Remember, they
are also flexible, so they want to change; however, they do not seem to
be worried about whether their idea is right or wrong because they
believe that their idea values the value of the field in which it lives,
even if it can later become debunked.
6. 4. Pre-conscious system
Pre-conscious systems are an important feature of creativity. Before
starting one’s own work or doing work by others, consciousness is
essential, otherwise, the work cannot be successful.
7. 5. New result orientation
The result of new creative work is that it includes new ideas. Results-
oriented thinking is driven by the desire to excel beyond expectations.
The benchmark might be one’s prior performance (aiming for progress),
an objective measure (results-oriented), a goal that is challenging or
even bettering, or going above and beyond what has already been done
(continuous improvement).
8. 6. Universal
It is a universal and general ability, to be used for any purpose because it
is the creative spirit used in all areas of life – such as creative drawing,
creative writing, and creative ideas.
9. 7. Environment Approval
Creativity is closely related to the social environment of
individuals. Also, it is closely related to personality. It has three main
components, namely – knowledge, intellectual ability, and tendency.
10. 8. Originality
Creativity is linked to an individual’s core contribution. Creativity is not
included in the work as nature. Originality produces a concept that no
one else will ever be able to duplicate since they cannot see it from your
perspective. Originality signifies different things to different people.
Originality may be seen as an idea rather than a term. It blends our
originality and unique viewpoint on a subject or circumstance.
11. 9. Human power
Creativity is a human capacity, which creates new and unique ideas,
ideas, and imagination. Then, it can be used in entrepreneurship and
other areas of life. The goal of innovation is to develop new concepts
and tools that boost output and value while using the same input and
increasing productivity. By including the human perspective and
individuals in all phases of the problem-solving process, human-
centered innovation is a management technique that produces solutions
to challenges.
12. 10. Strong motivation and determination
This is where the hard work of creativity comes in. So, we can all think
creatively – but what uses creativity if it doesn’t really show itself in the
world of creation or creation? The main problems that need to be
pursued for creativity by creating software solutions, creating social
capital through community building, or painting artwork that only
comes from strong motivation and perseverance. In addition, creative
ideas will only remain in the mind of the individual without the
opportunity to influence society and/or the community.
13. 11. Flexibility
This is a key characteristic because it involves a mindset that suggests
that there may be a single answer or solution to a particular problem.
Flexible thinkers are not hemmed in by being overly focused on one
way of working and tend to be open to innovation. They also have the
ability to work part-time and then switch to alternative
solutions/methods.
14. 12. Study, think
Creativity focuses more on studying, thinking, and knowing because
the entrepreneur feels that deep thinking and intelligence are essential
before starting work.
15. 13. New Idea Combination
Creativity is a combination of new ideas that affect the feelings of the
workers and managers working in the organization, as it would be
unrealistic if the new ideas were not incorporated into the business.
16. 14. Natural or acquired
• Creativity can be a natural or an acquired one, as entrepreneurial
ideas are almost new and unique, but for some individuals, the ideas
are not their own but are derived from knowledge and experience. It
is neither a secret quality nor a hereditary feature to be creative. The
process of creativity is one that can be studied, practiced, and
perfected.
17. 15. Creating a new method
In entrepreneurship, creativity is worked by new methods, rather than
conventional approaches. As a result, the latest scientific methods,
techniques, and principles can be used.
18. 16. A sense of intense curiosity
Creative thinkers are fascinated with the world around them. They ask a
lot of questions and tend to develop a very intense focus that often
surprises them as they try to elaborate on how things work, the beautiful
structure, or whatever else they set their mind to.
19. 17. Motivating the heart
The development of creativity is associated with self-esteem, not by any
technique or demonstrative power. It was shown that taking into account
recognition from the past, present, and future is crucial while attempting
to inspire innovation. You must continually plot a route to guarantee that
you can surpass your visitors’ expectations in a market that is driven by
consumers, like the cruise business.
20. 18. Brain activity
Creativity is brain activity and not an idea or a strategy. Characteristics
of creativity are not equal to all. Yet, Characteristics of creativity can be
improved through initiatives. Thus, the relationship between creativity
and entrepreneurship is like the mother and child bond.
21. 19. Genetic
Creativity is a quality by birth, but it can be obtained and enhanced by
education and training at various entrepreneurship-related educational
institutions
22. 20. Ask questions
One of the key characteristics of creative thinkers is their keen curiosity.
They are inquisitive all the time. They frequently ask inquiries such as,
“Why?” much like kids do. They then inquire, “Why not?” Why is it
that we can’t? “Can it be done now, even though it hasn’t been done
before?”
23. 21. Generate new ideas
The capacity to come up with ideas is the most crucial aspect of creative
thinking. Additionally, the quality of your ideas will improve as you
produce more of them. You are more likely to have the correct idea at
the appropriate moment if you have more ideas.
24. 22. Acknowledge Faults
The openness to confess when they are mistaken is the fourth
characteristic of highly innovative minds. Over 80% of people spend the
majority of their mental and emotional resources fighting the idea that
they committed a mistake. Stop allowing this to happen to you. People
that are truly intellectual and extremely creative are adaptable, open-
minded, and prepared to modify their minds as well as recognize when
they were mistaken when their initial judgments proved to be erroneous.
25. 23. Practice thinking from zero
The second characteristic of creative thinkers is that they consistently
engage in “Zero-Based Thinking.” They question themselves often, “If I
weren’t doing what I’m doing right now, knowing what I know now,
would I start?”
26. 24. Goal Oriented
Goal-oriented people are creative thinkers. The sixth characteristic of
creative people is their extreme goal focus. They are quite clear about
what they want. They have everything very clearly written down. They
frequently picture it in their minds. They picture what their objective
might look like if it were accomplished in the present. Additionally,
people become more creative and advance more quickly toward their
objectives the more they envisage and anticipate it becoming a reality.
27. 25. Alter Mind
The willingness to adapt is the third characteristic of creative thinkers.
They understand that resistance to change or incapacity to adapt in a
world like ours is deadly. They would rather be in control of their life
than be overwhelmed by the sudden wave of change that is necessary
and inevitable. The phrase “I changed my mind” sums up someone who
is really adaptable and open to change.
28. 26. Learning continuously
The ability to admit “I don’t know” is the sixth trait of highly creative
individuals. They understand that no one can possibly know everything,
and it is extremely likely that practically everyone is mistaken in some
way, regardless of what they are doing. As a result, they are quick to
confess it when someone asks them a subject for which they are
unprepared.
29. 27. Devoid of Ego
They have less ego engagement in being correct, which is the eighth
characteristic of highly creative thinkers. Instead of focusing on who is
right, they prioritize doing what is right. To accomplish a task, get
through a challenge, or address an issue, they are open to suggestions
from any source.
