    • Knowledge workers' creativity and the role of the physical work environment

      The study examines the effect of the physical work environment on the creativity of knowledge workers, compared with the effects of creative personality and the social‐organizational work environment. Based on data collected from SMEs, we conclude that creative personality, the social‐organizational work environment, and the physical work environment independently affect creative performance.The results give support for HR practices that focus on the individual, the social‐organizational work environment, and the physical work environment in order to enhance knowledge workers' creativity.

      This paper examines the relationship between a firm's creativity-supporting work environment and a firm's product innovation performance.

NP productivity partly mediates the relationship between creativity-supporting work environment and NP success.
