Against Creativity

In “Against Creativity,” Oli Mould challenges the conventional wisdom that creativity is an unmitigated good. He argues that the relentless pursuit of creativity can lead to burnout, superficiality, and a culture of constant competition. Mould explores the darker side of creativity, revealing how it can be weaponized in the workplace and society at large. Through thought-provoking insights and compelling examples, he advocates for a more balanced approach that values rest, reflection, and genuine connection over relentless innovation. This book invites readers to rethink their relationship with creativity and embrace a more sustainable, fulfilling creative practice.
