Essay Question 1

Essay Question 1- Culture & Creativity

Within the theoretical framework explaining that creativity and innovation are a product of person-environment interactions (Kwan et al., 2018, p. 167), some empirical studies arguably concluded that certain Hofstede (2011)’s dimensions of national culture influence an individual’s creativity and innovation.

Using two big names in the world of innovation, Jack Ma and Jeff Beszos as reference to the Eastern and Western cultures, explain how dimensions of national cultures can affect a person’s creativity/innovation. OR

Using Aliko Dangote or any other Forbe-listed African entrepreneur as reference to national cultures in Africa, explain how the convergence of Western and Eastern cultures can shape a person’s creativity/innovation.
