Overview

The Power of Creative Thinking: Identifying and Solving Problems in Business, Education, and Society Volume 1 Unlock the transformative potential of creativity with The Power of Creative Thinking, the 2025 KIE Conference book. Published by the Knowledge, Innovation & Enterprise (KIE) Conference, this volume brings together leading scholars, practitioners, and entrepreneurs from around the world to explore how creative thinking can identify and solve pressing challenges across business, education, and society. The KIE Conference has a mission to foster global innovation and enterprise through the exchange of knowledge, support for creative projects, and alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Each year, the KIE Conference gathers thought leaders to share insights, and this book distills the most impactful research and practical applications from that annual gathering. This edition focuses on two overarching goals: first, raising awareness of how creative thinking can address critical challenges in business, education, and societal sectors; and second, uncovering innovative approaches to solving complex problems and improving outcomes across organizations and communities. The book offers practical strategies, scholarly research, and inspiring case studies that demonstrate creativity in action. The chapters cover a diverse range of topics: Global Creativity Networks and Everyday Creativity: Learn how creativity can be a way of life, a path to self-actualization, and a tool to overcome fear and uncertainty. Workplace Meaningfulness and Corruption: Understand how creativity fosters engagement in the workplace, and discover strategies to combat corruption in education and society. Entrepreneurship and MSMEs: Explore how micro, small, and medium enterprises in Zimbabwe and beyond can leverage innovation to solve problems, differentiate from competitors and create new market opportunities. Neuroscience of Creativity: Kim introduces the ""7 Muses of the Neuro-Creative Cycle,"" linking cognitive science to practical creative thinking frameworks. Art and Music Education: Chapters examine empirical approaches to creative development in art, as well as Ubimus (ubiquitous music) frameworks that extend music-making beyond traditional environments. Mathematics and Early Learning: Learn effective strategies for teaching mathematics to young learners, with reflective questions and exercises to enhance engagement. Unlocking Individual Potential: Step-by-step methods transform abstract ideas of creativity into actionable skills, enhancing student and professional development. Addressing Inequities and Exam Culture: Kim's final chapter critically examines standardized testing, racial disparities in leadership, and the ""Testocracy"" phenomenon, emphasizing imagination and playfulness as remedies to systemic inequities. Each chapter is crafted to not only inform but inspire-offering tangible recommendations, reflective exercises, and frameworks that readers can apply in their own contexts. From corporate innovation and entrepreneurial ventures to educational policy and societal challenges, this book demonstrates that creativity is not an abstract concept but a powerful tool for meaningful change. Whether you are an academic, educator, business leader, policymaker, or student, The Power of Creative Thinking equips you with actionable insights to transform problems into opportunities, fostering innovation and resilience in a rapidly evolving world. Celebrate the impact of creative thinking on a global scale-experience the knowledge, strategies, and stories that make this KIE conference book a must-read for anyone seeking to understand and harness the power of human creativity.
