Some scholars say that the highest value in western civilization today is promoting the many-sided creativity of each individual, rather than training persons to be highly specialized experts. do you agree with this perspective? what could be the negative aspects of promoting individual creativity as the highest value?

Explanation:

From my perspective I do not agree with it. I believe that there should be a balance in both to be the complete highest value. Concerning with creativity, we should encourage and promote people to develop their creative side. Imagination is beyond our knowledge and if people work on it, we could see amazing progress with their new projects. But if we only focus on the creative side, then people could be all over the place not knowing where they want to go or sometimes to do. Concerning with specialization, it is very important that if someone is good at some specific work, she/he should specialize in it to be the best at it. But not all work should be in a linear way. People should be able to explore other things but still focus on their job. In conclusion, I believe that the best option should be a combination of both; people should specialize at the work they are the best at and should be able to explore and promote their creativity through it.
