The six pillars of creativity

This week on the McGill Delve podcast, our editor-in-chief is in the hot seat. Saku Mantere is a professor of Organizational Behaviour at the Desautels Faculty of Management. Over the course of his career, he’s identified six ways to understand creativity. These frameworks can help you unlock the creativity that’s within you and your organization.

We begin this episode with an overview of Professor Mantere’s six pillars of creativity. Then, he and interviewer Eric Dicaire explore how Mantere teaches creativity to undergraduate students. In the second half of the conversation, they dive into what creativity can look like in the workplace and how different organizations might encourage different kinds of creativity, citing examples from X and Google.
