Is creativity "too difficult" to measure?

This week I was challenged to think about whether or not creativity is "too difficult" to measure. I think that the deeper issue remains a lacking cohesive definition of what exactly creativity is. If you cannot define something how can you be expected to measure it?

Another problem with this is the subjective nature of creativity, particularly in its evaluation. Something that may be highly creative could easily be overlooked depending on its obscurity and the judge's value placed on such a creation.

The next difficulty that would be faced is developing a strategy for measuring it, likely some form of test. There is always an issue of eliminating bias from testing and this case would prove to be particularly difficult.

Perhaps until we develop a catch-all definition of Creativity we cannot accurately measure. I would suggest that it is "too difficult" to accurately measure creativity.
