How Do You Define Creativity?

“Creativity is any visionary, inspired, clever, original pursuit. To me, it’s not about the medium: design, art, music, acting, or writing—those are just vehicles. For example, company building is a creative act. It takes creativity to inspire teams. It takes creative persuasion to activate board members. To me, that’s really creative work.

That's the first answer to 9 questions posed by the awesome designer and writer Jennifer Rash on her blog. If you don't follow her or her work in the storytelling with data community by Cole Nussbaumer Knaflic, don't miss her work to learn about data visualization, creativity, design thinking, and the visualization community.

Other questions include:

  1. What's the biggest benefit of technology?

  2. What’s the biggest concern with technology?

  3. Why "hire fewer data scientists for better data science?"

  4. What will be the impact of generative AI on creatives?

  5. Is technology bringing people along or leaving them behind?

  6. How do you carve out time to read?

  7. What's your writing system?

  8. What's your next big focus?

Thanks Jennifer -- it was fun finding the answers to these questions :)
