Abstract
Creativity and innovation are terms that have started to be used much more in the international arena, but they are also one of the important concepts for organizations in our country. The problem is finding the necessary human resources for change and managing the change process in line with the innovative perspective. The one of the solutions is the STEM Model, which emerges as one of the models applied in the education method in order to develop creativity and innovative thinking in individuals. It is thought that the implementation of training programs that take the STEM model as a reference in organizations, will be improve the innovativeness perception of organizations. Data related to the study will be obtained through one-on-one interviews with companies that have R&D units and are in sectors that require innovation by their nature (IT and Technology). In addition, the results of studies on STEM applications in the field of business in the literature will be added to the data pool. It is understood from the studies that the STEM model, makes a positive change in the perception of creativity and innovation. With the implementation of the STEM model in adults, it is thought that the perception of creativity and innovation will develop positively on individuals (and therefore businesses). After this study, it is planned to create a model and training programs for the implementation of the STEM model in adults in order to develop the perception of innovation and creativity.
