January 2023 Creativity at Work

Call for Contributions/Expressions of Interest
Creativity At Work: From Novice to Expert - Personal Narratives

Creative Academic Magazine #22 will explore creativity in the context of ‘work’. Convinced that our creativity has the potential to be part of our practise at any level of expertise, we want to explore journeys of creativity from novice to expert.

We welcome contributions in the form of personal stories, conceptual analyses, scholarly research or opinion pieces that explore and cast light on these and related questions

How have I come to be able to practise creatively in my work settings?
How does my work encourage me to try to be creative? What are the deep motivations that drive me?
What does being creative mean to me in my work? (both general and specific situations)
How has my creativity evolved as I have journeyed from novice to expert in any area of work practice?
How, when and where did I begin to develop my creative self?
How do past experiences of me being creative in any environment contribute to being creative in my work environment where expertise is required?"
How have my experiences of being creative in one work domain contributed to my being creative in another work domain?

- What aspects of the environment in which I work encourage and facilitate my creativity?
- What beliefs/concepts of creativity do I draw upon when I interpret my creative acts?

Should the term Pro-c be reserved for the highest level of expertise in the work environment? If so, how do we recognise creativity at all other levels of expertise?

Our format is scholarly but informal. Articles are typically around 1500 words but longer and shorter pieces will be considered. They will need to be submitted to the Editor no later than January 7th 2023. If you would like to contribute an article for this issue of the magazine to be published in January 2023, please provide me with a working title and a short description of what it will be about - lifewider@gmail.com
