Having lived and worked aboard, I discovered the importance of creativity in providing a competitive advantage over our rising international competitors (China and India), where their education systems tend to focus on rote-learning. Frankly, they have us beat in rote-learning, but we still have the edge in problem-solving, critical thinking, and creativity/design. Let’s work to keep that advantage.
