      Completely agree — creativity is often underrated in project management, yet it’s what helps us adapt when plans meet reality.
      Some of the best outcomes I’ve seen came from encouraging the team to think differently, experiment, and find innovative ways to solve problems. It’s definitely a driver of long-term success.
