Can a trip to an art museum ignite creativity in business?
Studies have demonstrated that visiting museums reduce stress and improves one’s mood. MRI studies of people’s brains while looking at paintings also show stimulation in areas of creativity and empathy.
Meanwhile, a McKinsey report recently cited in the Harvard Business Review indicated that 94 percent of CEO’s surveyed were disappointed with the level of innovation within their companies.
This got me to thinking, would spending time in art museums inspire more creativity in business?
