History

In 1935, H. Smith Richardson and Grace Jones Richardson started the Smith Richardson Foundation.[5] One of the topics the foundation focused on was creativity and leadership, as Richardson observed that new leaders often failed after taking over from the previous generation. In the 1970s, the Smith Richardson Foundation founded The Creativity Research Institute in Greensboro. The Institute later became known by its current name: The Center for Creative Leadership.[6]
