Abstract
Although creativity is considered a key driver of successful business, few studies examine it in a form of creative mindset. By means of a meta-analysis of 58 studies (n = 22,427), this study explores how creative mindsets and creative self-efficacy engage in affecting creative performance and innovation capability that result in business success. The results suggested that a growth mindset is positively related to creative self-efficacy, which can influence creative performance and innovation capability while a fixed mindset has negative effects. More importantly, creative performance contributes more to business success than innovation capability does. Thus, these results established the role of creative mindsets in enhancing business success. Therefore, this study provides scholars and practitioners the necessary evidence for making statistical inferences on creativity-based model and enhancing the business success.

Summary
In today’s economy, the creativity factor is considered an important skill in business operation and success (Nischang Cusanelli & Trevallion, 2020). Researchers have investigated creativity in the context of work production with diverse novel and useful perspectives, including how individuals’ beliefs affect creativity (Puente-Díaz & Cavazos-Arroyo, 2017). Due to its growing importance, individual beliefs have long been observed to understand human behaviour (Burnette et al, 2020). According to Pretz and Nelson (2017), individual beliefs about the nature of creative ability, known as creative mindsets, are according to fixed and growth mindset. Creative mindsets are the product of an individual’s talent and ability, which are critical for business performance and achievements
