It's important to distinguish between creativity and art. The most common form of creativity is problem solving: You can't get the truck through the tunnel, so you let the air out of the tires. I presume that businesspeople are very good at this kind of creativity...

By contrast, art depends on whether you can invent something from very little... Of course, skill and learning are also involved, but art goes beyond skill.

Being good in business is the most fascinating kind of art.
