Therefore the impact towards competitiveness becomes increasing important as most learning and training has focused on accumulation of knowledge rather than ensuring practicable skill and knowledge transfer that is central to creativity. This study reported the impact of creativity to organizational competitiveness. The review confined to performance enhancement of creativity leading to organizational competitiveness which is a necessity to match with the transitional changes from knowledge based to creativity. This review unveils organizational performance for stronger and more inclusive growth based on key priorities that complementarily provide the basis for a comprehensive and action-oriented approach to innovation from knowledge creation to problem solving. Creativity leading to innovation was found to be an integral part of organizational process. However, this findings strengthens kno...

The specificity and accuracy of SLN examination by frozen section has been variable in many studies. This study aims to describe our experience in frozen section (FS) analysis of SLN. We have retrospectively analyzed data from 449 axillary SLN subjected to FS examination from 440 patients with breast cancer. All patients had free axillary LN clinically. Out of 449 cases, no false positive cases were found on FS (specificity of 100 %). Twenty-six cases were false negative (6 interpretation-related reasons and 20 technical-related reasons). The overall sensitivity was 84 % with a total accuracy rate of 93 % and interpretation sensitivity of 96 %. Three cases were deferred. Twenty-two of the false negative cases were micrometastases, whereas 4 were macrometastases. The interpretation-related false negative cases were not related to the subtype of carcinoma (ductal vs. lobular). However, they were all of low nuclear grade. These findings are similar to most published data. FS is a reliable method for evaluating SLN. The most common cause of false negative diagnosis is sampling error. More attention should be paid to low-grade tumors. Moreover, in FS analysis, we recommend to totally submit SLNs that are less than 5 mm in diameter, bisecting them if possible, and to serially section SLNs that are at least 5 mm at 2-mm intervals.
