In thriving organizations, creativity and belonging often feel like distant cousins—related but rarely seen together. Innovators like creatives, designers, developers, and engineers drive new ideas, while HR typically nurtures a sense of belonging.

But why should these forces operate in isolation? What if, instead of being separate, creativity and belonging could actively fuel each other?

The key lies in creative connection.
