ABSTRACT
Future societies emphasize that an important factor of team creativity is the collaboration between people with creative talent and people with expertise in various fields. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the effect of the convergence core competency of industrial workers on team creativity. For this purpose, 104 industrial workers were studied to investigate the impact of convergence core competency on team creativity. The effect of convergence core competency of industrial workers on team creativity was analyzed. The analysis results show that creative thinking and consideration affect team creativity as well as industrial workers’ convergence core competency. Thus, in the future, educational content centered on convergence core competency should be developed in the university education field to enhance the sustainable growth of team creativity that. In particular, research on educational methodologies that can enhance creative thinking and consideration should be actively conducted.
