Convergent thinking brings possibilities towards a workable answer, using criteria, judgement and what a task actually requires.
Creativity doesn’t end when you begin choosing. A pile of wonderful ideas still needs someone to decide what belongs in the thing you’re making.

Noba’s Creativity introduces different aspects of creative thinking. It adds context to the movement between opening possibilities and selecting something worth developing.
