Creativity: A viable and valuable competency in medicine? A qualitative exploratory study.

Participants perceived creativity as a form of art that involves thinking and action processes. Creativity is important to tackle the challenges of current and future workplaces, because it stimulates the search for original solutions which are needed in a rapidly changing healthcare landscape. Participants proposed different methods and techniques to promote creativity learning. However, we need further research to design and implement creativity in medical curricula.
