Abstract

We are full swing into the era of turbulence, and at this time, our creativity is more important than ever. We have heard many scholars and business leaders ask the question, “Can we invent and innovate effectively to keep up with the fast changes happening around us?” This chapter explores how to develop a heightened creativity and help weak economic areas by using technology, the arts, and our unique cultures to ignite economic development. Attracting tourism; young, talented people; and entrepreneurs to rural and urban cores is essential to thrive in turbulent times. In times of turbulence, organizations often navigate on autopilot, failing to see unintended circumstances and implications. However, every time a decision is made there is a trade-off. A true understanding of the trade-off may determine success or failure. Failure could mean very high cost either monetarily or the organizational future in the marketplace.
