The 2017 MIT Sloan Management Review study shows significant positive correlation between companies’ “commitment to innovation and their public financial results, such as growth and profit.” With data across five years from 154 companies, such a conclusion confirms one important statement - creativity in the workplace does matter.

Giving is one of the most wonderful abilities every human being has. We all come to this world with our own unique identity code gifted to us in forms of talents, skills, experiences… No matter how small the gift might be, each one of us has something truly special to offer.

Every day people around the globe continue to make an impact and inspire others to use their natural curiosity and creativity for the good. Here are some examples of creative thinkers who are changing our world today:

Everyday we encounter hundreds of different sources of information that often overwhelm our minds, make us feel stressful, tired, and anxious. One very helpful treatment, however, has long been found – it is classical music. Its scientifically proven mental health benefits have already amazed millions of people worldwide. Now it’s your turn to experience them!

The world moves at an incredible speed, with hundreds of mind-blowing inventions being introduced constantly. It’s not a secret that AI has been taking over numerous jobs and even daily actions that could be automatized. However, there is one skill that it would probably never be able to attain – creativity.

Mind full or mindful? – the game of words which has become highly topical lately. With the use of social media, unstoppable flow of news, job responsibilities, we are constantly being exposed to hundreds of distractions, which carry us away from experiencing life in the present moment.

Recently we contacted Jordyn Burton, a New York based pianist, to talk about music and its impact on human beings. After all, there’s no better person to shed light on the topic than an experienced musician.

Creativity is a skill useful not only for artists but generally for all the people in their daily lives. Moreover, in modern times it has become essential.

Every day and everywhere we are surrounded by colors. Such an ordinary part of our life and yet a very significant one. Even more so in the context of art.

How many times have you heard from others “Just be yourself”? Such obvious and common advice, but, as it turns out, one of the most difficult to realize in many cases.

Despite the common conception, art surrounds us everywhere, even in the most ordinary things that we are used to taking for granted. Sometimes only by abstracting our life from certain phenomena can we understand the real value and purpose of them.

Please greet the most important person you need to meet in your life – this is TRUE YOU. Such a meeting happens at different life stages for every human being. However, regardless of the timeline, the outcome of such a connection, if built, is similar for all of us.

Experiences last forever and make people happy. And there’s nothing better than happy colleagues. Unlike materialistic things where they only make you happy a first, experiences last much longer. Even if you have a bad experience, it will eventually turn out to be positive. For starters, you would have learned something from it. Additionally, any bad experience usually turns out to be a good story that you tell over time.

“I need to find places for them to eat, drink, socialize and have a good time. Furthermore, we have people flying in from our international offices for this event. Not only do I have to plan all of the day’s meetings, but now I’m responsible for their good time as well….”

These two have built something special from the ground up, and that something is... Unarthodox! Unarthodox is a creative space in the heart of New York City, built with the same passion both Al and Maria themselves resonate. A place where every kind of person can come and feel a welcoming comfort and joy, where they can have fun and explore their creativity with no rules or regulations, just like Al and Maria do on a daily basis!
