Can creativity be learned?

[NicoleMarie]

I'm familiar with the fact that innovation can simply be taking ideas from other industries/competitors. However, the really creative people that are coming up with brand new solutions seem to have the most successful businesses. This is ideally how I'd like to be, but I'm not naturally creative. Is anyone else having problems coming up with creative solutions? I'm familiar with the "scamper" technique, but it still seems to involve "coming up with stuff." Any tips?

Thanks!
