"Boardroom Creativity" by Fennemiek Gommer and Anne Mieke Eggenkamp is a highly accessible and insightful book that offers valuable guidance on harnessing creativity within the realm of business. In a world filled with unprecedented challenges, the book provides a timely and relevant exploration of creativity's role in navigating these complexities.

One of the book's notable strengths, in my opnion, lies in its ability to distill complex concepts into a concise and easily digestible format. Through a set of nine well-articulated principles, it effectively demonstrates how creative intelligence can be integrated into business projects, ultimately shaping the future of the organization.

One of the most engaging aspects of "Boardroom Creativity" is its capacity to stimulate reflection. The authors encourage readers to assess their current positions and contemplate avenues for improvement. This self-reflective element adds a valuable dimension to the book, inviting readers to actively engage with the material and apply it to their own circumstances.

In conclusion, to me "Boardroom Creativity" is a must-read for anyone seeking to harness the power of creativity in a business setting. Its accessibility, practicality, and emphasis on self-improvement make it an invaluable resource for professionals and leaders facing today's challenges. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to those looking to ignite their creative potential and drive positive change within their organizations.
