Abstract


The business world is more competitive than earlier days. Ancient day’s business organizations were focusing on consumer satisfaction rather than employee performance, later it has been found that employees’ innovative and creative performance are also very important in achieving the expected heights of success. Now every organization is trying to maintain their standards high in their business by using different strategies to empower the creative and innovative contributions of the employees. Workplace creativity is one of the critical factors in maintaining employment competitiveness. There are lots of factors which predict creativity in the workplace. The main objective of this paper is to analyse the factors related to workplace creativity using Meta analysis. To achieve this objective of the study the researcher reviewed numerous studies which have been published in different literatures related to workplace creativity. After reviewing the numerous studies in the area, researchers posit that motivation both intrinsic and extrinsic, self efficacy, social support in organization, job autonomy and cognitive styles are the predictors of employees’ workplace creative performance. And more, workplace creativity is the product of good employer rather than a good employee because workplace creativity will arise only in a facilitating working environment.
