Omega, 2000, vol. 28, issue 3, 303-312

Abstract: The place of creativity, design and style in MS/OR has never been doubted but there has not been a unified approach towards understanding the varied and significant roles they play. In this paper a means of examining creativity, design and style is presented that seeks to illuminate the key role that they play in explaining how practice in MS/OR goes beyond the application of technique and involves analysts in a rich mix of processes and activities.
