ความคิดสร้างสรรค์ may be defined as the development of original, นวนิยาย, appropriate and useful ideas, while innovation implies the subsequent implementation of creative concepts within in an organizational. Self-leadership proponents have often suggested self-leadership and relationships between creativity/innovation. As DiLiello and Houghton(2008) suggest, many critical concepts from the creativity literature may be related to self-leadership. For example, autonomy and self determination are key components of both creativity and self-leadership. Yun et al. have provided empirical evidence suggesting that the need for autonomy may be positively related to individual self-leadership practices and autonomy is often identified as an essential component in individual creativity.
