Abstract

AbstractThis article reports the results of a two‐year study of the development and expression of creativity in Japanese companies and describes the relationship between human resource development (HRD) and corporate creativity. The distinction between individual and corporate creativity is discussed, and a definition of corporate creativity is proposed.
