Description

Understanding and harnessing group creativity is crucial for organizations and society as a whole. While individual creativity has been extensively studied, recent research has highlighted the importance of social and contextual factors in fostering innovation.

This book brings together diverse perspectives from cognitive psychology, groups, information systems, and organizational psychology to explore the complex relationships between group processes, context, and creativity. It delves into how group decision-making is influenced by various factors, including diversity, flexibility, and support systems, as well as the conditions that can either inhibit or facilitate creative output.

By examining both the internal dynamics of groups and their external environment, this volume sheds light on the processes involved in group creativity and innovation. It provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of research in this field, offering valuable insights for theory and practical application.
