Creative leaders as individuals or team players like to expand boundaries
Creative leaders find new ways to see, interprete, and understand
Creative leaders are curious by questioning
Creative leadership anticipates and accepts ambiguity presented by contradiction and uncertainty because of tolerance for disorganized disorder and unpredictability

narrow competencies to be learned,
taught or tested

of creativity being produced or indicated. As such, creativity is intrinsically/internally experienced or responded to
Creative leadership cultivate creative culture to
evoke an emotional response in anyone
experiencing or engaging it.Creativity may be
felt or observed through certain indicators because
it is unlikely recorded, assessed, or reviewed
through paperwork

by different people depending on personal
standpoint that often produces debatable perspectives at personal level
Creativity is usually judged based on individual or team's specific
and unique perspective
on the world
