Creativity is only weakly related to analytical intelligence, and it depends on expertise, imaginative thinking, willingness to take risks, intrinsic interest and a supportive environment.

Where people slip

Creative intelligence draws on divergent thinking; analytical intelligence draws more on convergent thinking.
