"Collaborative Creativity—Group Creativity and Team Innovation" by Paul B. Paulus, Mary Dzindolet, and Nicholas W. Kohn
Summary
This comprehensive handbook chapter, "Collaborative Creativity—Group Creativity and Team Innovation," by Paulus, Dzindolet, and Kohn, delves into the scientific evidence surrounding creativity and innovation within both temporary groups and long-term teams. The authors distinguish between these entities, highlighting that while research on group creativity often uses objective lab data with students, studies on team innovation more frequently rely on self-reports. The piece explores various factors influencing team creativity, such as psychological safety, leadership styles, the role of conflict, and group cohesion, alongside the impact of team characteristics like size and diversity. Ultimately, it aims to integrate research from both group creativity and team innovation to provide a more holistic understanding of collaborative creative processes in organisations and offer practical suggestions for fostering innovation.
