We are facing an unprecedented creativity crisis – a huge threat in the light of global economic and environmental challenges.
Check these facts:
(1). 300,000 Torrance tests have shown that while IQ is on the rise, since 1990 creative thinking (CQ) has been rapidly declining.
(2) A study of 1500 CEOs has revealed that creative skill has been identified as the top skill needed for future leaders.
(3) 98 per cent of children aged 3-5 are ranked as “geniuses” of divergent thinking; by age 13-15 only 10 per cent are, and by adulthood this number has dropped to a mere 2%
What do you think can we do about it?
