creative thinker
Original idea generator
A creative thinker is someone who approaches problems or generates ideas in original, unconventional ways.
The term emphasizes the process rather than artistic output—an engineer or businessperson can be a creative thinker as readily as a painter.
We need creative thinkers who can see past the obvious solutions.
