Big Questions in Creativity 2016

Edited by Paul D. Reali & Cynthia Burnett

Because it demands reimagining, reconsideration, and redefinition, change is an essential part of creativity. And in Big Questions in Creativity 2016, the field’s newest thinkers tackle some of its most intriguing questions in the the areas of personal, organizational, and cultural change. This collection represents the year’s 10 best papers from the International Center for Studies in Creativity at SUNY Buffalo State, and provides a peek in the window of the world’s first Master of Science degree in creativity. As professional facilitators, artists, educators, and change leaders, these authors work to engender creativity in others. The questions they ask—and the answers they find—are key to understanding what creativity is now, and what it may well be in the future.
