Testing Your Creativity

February 1st, 2010

Creativity Test

As creative professionals, many of us assume that creativity is an inherit trait: you have it or you don’t.  Well, there’s a lot of science that argues that creativity can be learned and even honed into a finely tuned skill.  In the vein of trying to flesh out some ways to work on creativity, we stumbled across Epstein Creativity Competencies Inventory for Individuals or ECCI-i.  What this little quiz does is judge you in four main areas thought to be the main pillars of creativity: New Idea Preservation, Challenge Seeking, Skill & Knowledge Broadening, and Physical & Social Changes.

It tells you what areas you do well in (we, for instance, are rock stars at changing up our environment) and what areas you can work on (skydiving is not our thing, we obviously need to take more risks).

While I wouldn’t put all my eggs in this test, we at Ohsome inc, found it fun and pretty insightful.  Check it out for yourself and let us know your thoughts.  In the meantime, we’ll be signing up to rock crocodiles to sleep in the wild – now that’s risky.
