Working with creative people is challenging as it is rewarding. While it can be stimulating to be surrounded by ideas in the midst of a creative environment, learning how to manage creative teams or co-workers is an art. And it needs to be pursued with care and attention. To manage a creative team effectively it is important to understand the way creative people work, and ensure that productivity does not get sacrificed in the process. You can’t produce creativity on demand by turning on a faucet, so there has to be an established code of work that is fair, stimulating, and result-oriented.
