Hello, friends, my name is Mayank.

In my opinion, creativity is more important than efficiency I would explain it like creativity comes first followed by efficiency.

For instance, first one imagine something (that's what creativity is) that you do something (that you imagined) till you get efficient in that and then again you start using your creativity to improve it. So you understand how creativity efficiency and then again creativity. Efficiency can be improved by creativity whereas act me vise versa is not possible.

Hi, Today topic is about whether creativity is important or efficiency.

In my view, I must say creativity is more important. Because. Through creativity, we can improve our technology. As we all know. That new technology brings the best efficiency and also helps in improving productivity.

The current trend is Everyone wants to achieve good success in less period of time.

So, If we will consider time, productivity, and other factors then Creativity has more importance than efficiency.

Through creativity, we can achieve efficiency, but without. Creativity is impossible with respect to time.

Thank you.

Hello,

Creativity is more important as the results regarding creativity can be extraordinary. Efficiency can be increased after creativity but efficiency can only be increased upto a certain limit if there is no creativity. Sometimes, thinking something out of the box leads to unexceptional results.

According to me, creativity is more important than efficiency because if you are creative then you think about new ideas and working on that with full efficiency. And achieve something good in your life.

Let me start discussion on this very interesting topic "which is more important creativity or efficiency". Fom my point, I think the creativity is more important than efficiency. Because if a person, student, entrepreneur etc is creative, He/she can think out of box and come with a great idea. But it does not need to be very efficient to work on that idea. He/She can increase the man labour to work on that idea to complete it in given span of time.

Both qualities are equally important since it is depending on the situation. For example, if you are in a job profession of fashion designing, animation, startups then it creates a lot of difference. At the same time efficiency is needed when we have to finish the given work in a fixed time period maintaining both quality & quantity. This is what happening in manufacturing industries today.

Creativity, of course, It has always been creativity which governs success. Let's look into our surroundings, we will find more number of efficient people than creative ones. But eventually, the creative ones turn to outshine others. I believe that even a creative person can turn out to be efficient in certain circumstances but vice versa would be something rare to find.

Hello friends,

Creativity and efficency both are important traits. Our personal as well as professional success depends upon both. Choosing one above the another depends upon situation to situation. Creativity becomes more important when it comes to innovation. New idea's, developing something new requires creativity first. It's okay to have less efficency at initial stages. But as the time goes, we need to start improving thereby increasing our efficency level. Again to increase our efficiency, it does require creativity, new techniques to learn, adapt and improve our work.

Thus both creativity and efficency are inter related with each other.

According to me, creativity is far more important than efficiency because when there is creativity, there will be a chance of improving the efficiency of the system. I will try to elaborate on it with an example suppose, you are an owner of an organisation and the organization is running for more than 5-6 years, every day producing the same product. So, you will surely try to increase the profit of the organisation by cutting down the rate of producing per unit which will require a new method of producing the product. There comes a role of creativity, getting a new idea to increase the profit will definitely help you to be creative and that's what creativity is all about.
