While enhancing creativity is beneficial, it comes with its own set of challenges:
1. Resistance to Change: Employees and even leaders themselves may resist new ideas due to a comfort with the status quo. Overcoming this resistance requires strong change management skills.
2. Balancing Structure and Flexibility: Too much structure can stifle creativity, while too much flexibility can lead to chaos. Leaders need to find the right balance to foster innovation without losing control.
3. Risk Management: Creative ideas often come with risks. Leaders must be willing to take calculated risks and manage the potential downsides effectively.
