Abstract or Introduction
Creativity and Innovation are success factors for businesses. The challenge is to harvest this creative energy and is therefore a leadership responsibility. This paper will address the issue of interdependency of leadership and organizational culture in the pursuit of creativity and innovation. It argues that leadership works as a catalyst as well as a prism.
Through leadership the respective “management tools” (Agbor, 2008), like culture or strategy, can be magnified and directed. At the same time the perspective on leadership will be influenced by the culture incorporated or strategy used. With this line of argumentation the paper will challenge the article “Creativity and Innovation: The Leadership Dynamic” by Emmanuel Agbor. In light of the variety of interdependencies, structures and influences in organization this paper will limit the scope of the analysis to the interdependency of organizational culture and leadership.
Therefore, the paper will be structured as follows: Based on a summary of said article (1) the author will point out his personal point of view (2), analyze the opposing views (3), and finally draw a conclusion (4).
