##plugins.themes.academic_pro.article.main##
Abstract
Cognition is the complex mental process that guides an individual for decision making through the development of thoughts, feelings and judgements. Creativity on the other hand is the generation of new ideas based on different situations and then transform those into reality. Both these two terms influence the organization and are dependent on each other. This research paper is a descriptive type research paper which is based on secondary data methods and elaborates the role of cognition and creativity in organizations. Organizations are familiar with these two terms and the role of both is prominent but it all depends on the practical implication of cognition and creativity in organizational settings. Various factors of cognition derive creativity at work but still need to be evaluated in detail. Further this research paper also throws light on the various parameters and factors those are important and boosts the cognition and creativity at work.
