What is creativity?
We have a personal idea of what it means to us, but lack a coherent definition that translates across industries and cultures.
That’s where Prolog's Five Creative Strengths come in. Each strength represents an aspect of highly creative products. People can also represent these strengths through their unique perspectives and working style.
The Five Creative Strengths
-
Efficacy
Products with an Efficacy Strength are usable, logical, and useful in solving a problem or achieving a goal.
People with an Efficacy strength can vividly imagine future goals, and are adept at setting milestones to reach those goals.
KEY WORDS: Logical. Useful. Problem-solving. Strategic. Visionary. Planned. Future-oriented.
-
Beauty
Products with a Beauty Strength are organic, well-crafted, and elegant.
People with a Beauty strength are drawn to the aesthetic and sensory dimensions of creativity, and can harness them to provoke strong emotion in others.
KEY WORDS: Well-crafted. Aesthetically Pleasing. Sensorial. Elegant. Emotional. Organic.
-
Novelty
Products with a Novelty Strength are original, surprising, and feature novel combinations.
People with a Novelty strength can produce lots of ideas quickly, thrive in brainstorms, but may need help with creating something truly well-rounded.
KEY WORDS: Original. Surprising. New Combinations. Inspired. Charismatic.
-
Completion
Products with a Completion strength feel whole, finished - whereas incomplete products feel noticeably half-finished.

-
Connectivity
Products with a Connectivity Strength find ingenious ways to fit into the cultural landscape of an industry or field, and new ways of connecting to the world.

Our Methodology
Our Five Strengths model and creative assessment methodology derives its foundations from a variety of scholarship combed from 65 years of research in the field. We are particularly indebted to the Creative Product Semantic Scale, created by Doctor Susan Besemer & Karen O’Quin (1989) and the Consensual Assessment Technique developed by Professor Teresa Amabile (1982).
