Product Review
"Jeff DeGraff is among the most creative thinkers on business today. The great benefit of
Creativity at Work is that it actually sets out a framework and process for achieving innovation and applying it in real business contexts. This is great news for the rest of us who have an acute need to foster innovation in our enterprises."
— Tom Glocer, CEO, Reuters Group
