Abstract

This book chapter aims to explore the role of talent management in enhancing employee creativity and innovation skills. It will cover various aspects, including key factors, development strategies, leadership styles, and barriers to creativity and innovation. As noted by Lee and Legood (2018), creativity arises through the processes of rearranging, exploring, and reflecting. This creative thinking then translates into innovation, making it the starting point for new achievements. Understanding the relationship between these two concepts is crucial: creativity paves the way for innovation to follow. Sidelkivska (2023) emphasizes that “creativity involves generating new and useful ideas, while innovation is about applying those ideas through new processes, products, or procedures that drive organizational progress.” These dynamics significantly impact organizations and employees. The first section will discuss key factors contributing to employee creativity and innovation, focusing on cognitive abilities and personality traits.
