Good Morning Everyone !
I am Chandan, and I would like to begin by saying that Creativity is more important for us. Creativity means trying to produce something each time we do the same work differently. Creativity creates a door to building something new. Just like our ancestors had done to create wheels, they shifted from square wheels to wheels that have been used by most of today's world as wheels due to the creativity by humans.
Also, if we try to be creative each time one day we will definately find a way that will improve the efficiency too.

Hello!
In my perspective, creativity dwells on efficiency and vice-versa. Both are the parallel tracks which has to be accomplished to reach out anything. Determining and fixing up either one of the two will not fetch fruitful things. Thinking out of box with creativity is important on the other scale delivering that creativity efficiently is also a big deal!.
'n' number of inventions are blooming, those with efficiency excels.
In short both creativity and efficiency are couple which could not be separated and of course, should'not be separated.

Well, no doubt creativity without efficiency and vice versa are incomplete.
Creativity lies in human nature and where are we today because we were creative. But responsibility is a term that always missing among homo-sapiens. And because of that, our creativity remained inefficient. And that leads to the exploitation of natural resources as well as human resources.
And we finally reached a stage that is a critical need to utilise human creativity efficiently. And develop a sense of morality and inculcate a vision to use creativity efficiently.

Hello everyone,
As the topic asks "Which is more important: creativity or efficiency".
I believe that both are important, but if I need to choose one then I will go for efficiency as being efficient in whatever goal we have or whatever we are working on is more important.
One can be creative thinking and not efficient in his creation field will not be valued more, but efficiency in whatever field working can result in good and can be appreciated.
If creativity and efficiency are together then it would accelerate your creation.

Hi everyone, I'm Owais,
I would like to keep my point that creativity and efficiency both are important for us.
For example, if I'm efficient but not creative then I'm stuck on a particular point. Because I don't think of new ideas which will help me improve my thinking capability which makes me smart.
And on another hand, if I'm creative but inefficient then I can not grow in our life. Suppose we have new ideas but we do not implement these ideas what is the benefit of these ideas?
So, according to me, both are important.

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.

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.

Hi !
According to me, creativity is more important. Because without creativity there is no need to judge efficiency. Creativity is an essential think to initiate something. If we want to implement something, first we will be known as the idea ie) creativity. The next step of creativity is Efficiency.
Efficiency can be determined as the creative things are quality and how long it's worthable. The determination can be done after the creativity. So I think Creativity is more essential than efficiency.

As per my thinking point of view, efficiency is rather more important than the creative skills. A person can innovate new things by the use of him superficial mind but it's worthless without efficiency. The point creativity itself goes under efficiency. By taking an example if I say that plant is very efficient in production, that means there must some creativity would be there in that plant. So, the most important thing that we have to consider is efficiency, all other things can be adjusted by it.

Both should form a part of each other. That is, creativity should contain efficiency and efficiency should also have some kind of creativity. Efficiency is more important. Everything involves cost be it monetary or in the form of time. A person, even if he is not creative, can do better in life if he is efficient. Though nowadays creativity is also required. Young minds have creative ideas. So, organisations also go for hiring youths. Their creative ideas have "efficiency" factor.
