Kirstin:  Take some time out to read this article, it is uplifting, but also, really makes you think about the lack of creativity in the workplace.  I work with an amazing, and very creative colleague, who designed and created some amazing employability installations for MMU Business School.  This project was outside of her job profile, but her team built in some creative work time away from the customer facing aspect of her job.  The result, inspiring visual art-work is now on show at our Employability Hub.  http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/dec/14/conformity-killing-creativity-at-work
