Development and functioning of contemporary organizations takes place under conditions of complexity and unpredictability of environmental changes, as well as competitive pressure, exerted by market participants. The ability to predict directions of changes, to anticipate future and distinguish themselves from other offerors constitutes an essential competence of efficient organizations. It is above all determined by creativity and innovativeness of all participants of the organization. Creativity as creative, unconventional thinking precedes innovativeness and frequently constitutes its causative factor. Together, these two values characterize entrepreneurial attitudes and behaviours. Creative thinking derives the matter out of vacuum and order out of chaos (Berleant, 2007). Therefore, this study is descriptive, not normative.The aim of the study is thus identification of a prerequisites shaping the organizational conditions and the style of leadership to stimulate creative thinking and unconventional problem solving.In order to achieve this goal, theoretical aspects of creativity and conditions for an increase in its significance in the process of organization’s development and functioning were discussed. Next, selected aspects of shaping conditions conducive to creativity in an organizations were indicated. Particularly, challenges facing the role of management board, through the evolution from a manager to the leader were highlighted. As a result, a change from the traditional role of a manager to a leader entails the empowerment of workers and enhancing cooperation and teamwork as important motivators for creativity.
