Beware of creatives

Adrian Furnham

A chapter in The Talented Manager, 2012, pp 49-51 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract There is a creativity industry as active, proselytizing and confident as the stress industry. The latter wants to persuade us that nearly everyone is stressed (at work). Work stress is almost exclusively the fault of employers; you need to be compensated for it; and there are many (expensive) courses you can attend that will help. It is in the best interests, of course, of this industry to exaggerate the incidence and consequences of stress to keep their business going.
