摘要
The problem and the solution. Research on individual creativity within human resource development (HRD) has emerged as a body of research fairly recently. This article explores individual employee creativity by detailing identified roles of individual factors and external influences featured in HRD-related research utilizing a quantitative empirical methodology. Research examining the effect of general personality characteristics, self-perception, goal setting, feedback, leadership, role modeling, and other factors associated with individual creativity are detailed. Recommended future directions regarding research on employee creativity with particular focus on HRD-related issues are described.
