Hello, my name is Shina.

According to me creativity and efficiency are both equal. There should be a balance of both creativity and efficiency in a person's life. For example, if a person has a creative mind and ideas but is not efficient he/she will not be able to work on those creative ideas and the same for efficiency if a person is efficient but can't think creatively there is no point in being efficient.

Thank you.

Hi friends.

All human have the brain. So we can be creative but not all people are efficient.

Efficiency is important to reach effectiveness in order to minimize costs and attain objectives.

You should know Efficiency part from creativity. Also Efficiency is important due to don't need all people creative but should be efficient in their fields.

Hello everyone.

In my point of view, both are equally important.

By giving an example of the corporate world, creative as well as effective persons are required to complete the task creatively and effectively.

A creative person is required to think out of the box as well as an efficient person is also required to fulfil the task at that particular time.

So, both are equally important.

Good morning everyone. I'm Venu Saripalli.

I want to share my views on the topic of creativity and efficiency. In my point of view, both are two sides of the same coin. Because without creativity. We can't perform our work efficiently. And without efficiency, having creativity is useless. Moreover, we are humans, we think out of the box sometimes. If we have a creative mind then we can do wonders in our life with the help of efficiency. Efficiency means the accuracy of our actions. So we do our actions accurately when we have the ability of creative thinking ability. We get the creativity ability by performing consistently our actions. At the end, both are important.

If the question is creativity or efficiency which is more important, I must say both of them are the characteristics which choose a leader among people.

A leader always should be creative as well as efficient. We are humans, we evolved, we adapted, and we developed because we were creative. It is the creativity which brings in the innovations among us, which makes us alive in the changing earth. But at the same time, it is efficiency which helps us to make the innovations fulfilled in reality. A leader or every person should use his or her creativity effectively to be successful.

For example; an organization can take so many new policies or strategies to make more profit but at the same time every worker of that organization has to work efficiently to make the policies a success. So in the end I must say, that both of creativity and efficiency are needed and used properly to be successful in life.

Hi everyone.

Today's discussion starts on the importance of creativity over efficiency or vice versa if I tell about my point of view, creativity is more important than efficiency but it's not mean that we deny the crucialness of efficiency both of them have their own place but logically if we see then creativity comes at first because before this we need to understand the meaning of creativity and efficiency, creativity is something that is the ability of a person to think differently from others have innovative ideas and then transform them into a reality and efficiency is after gaining the innovation in the real world then how effectively your innovation will be helpful for that real world. It's all about their meaning now come to that point how efficiency comes after the creativity lets understand for ex if a person did any innovation then to implement that innovation efficiently is also needed the creativity because efficiency cover these expects like less time, easily affordable, adaptable etc etc but if we put our eye then creativity again come in the field.

Thanks.

Greetings to everyone. My name is Gopika and here I would like to express my thoughts on creativity and efficiency.

I would say creativity and efficiency are two different things but they go hand in hand. Most of the innovations come from creative people like aeroplanes right brother's phones, bulbs, etc.

They might have taken a lot of time to this conclusion but they were creative that's what glued them to attain success.

In the case of efficiency once an innovative thing happens we will have lots of experiment studies on the topic and it will lead to a better solution. There we need efficiency because we are already aware of the basic conclusion to where we need to reach. So, to fasten the process with improvement we need efficiency over creativity.

Thankyou.

In my opinion, creativity is more important.

1. Innovation: Creativity is the driving force behind innovation. It involves thinking outside the box, coming up with new ideas, and solving problems in novel ways. Without creativity, progress and advancement in various fields would be stifled.

2. Adaptability: Creative thinking enables individuals and organizations to adapt to changing circumstances and challenges. It allows for flexibility and the ability to pivot when necessary.

3. Quality of Life: Creativity enhances our quality of life by bringing beauty, art, and culture into the world. It enriches our experiences and makes life more enjoyable and meaningful.

Note : Too much focus on efficiency at the expense of creativity can lead to stagnation and missed opportunities for innovation.

That's all from my point of view. Thank you.

Hello everyone, I am Sneha Sunny.

I would like to mention that if creativity is an engine then efficiency is a fuel of it. Both are importantly equal. Creativity brings the best set of our thoughts into something unique and new innovation while efficiency accelerates our new creation. As our surrounding keeps on evolving we should have to be creative in order to adapt to the changes in a better way keeping in mind that we should not donate the quantity of our efforts rather than quality i.e. efficiency.

Thank you.
