Introduction In recent studies of urban economies, tourism is listed as one of the most creative industries which not only attracts tourists, but also enhances economic development (Sleuwaegen & Boiardi, 2014). Creativity plays an essential role in obtaining an international competitive advantage because it is the manifestation of the wisdom and knowledge of human capital, which can transform creativity into value creation and offer individuals and organizations a sustained competitive advantage (Wu et al ., 2014). Following the rapid development of the tourism industry, changing tourist demands and novelty idea needs, tourism organizations seem increasingly keen to develop employees’ creative potential, encourage creative motivation and provide incentive to develop creativity and innovation to attract tourists and develop distinction, economic spin-off and authenticity (Jarabkova & Hamada, 2012).

The creativity aspects of the 4P (person, process, product, and place) model of “person”, “process”, “place”, and “product” have been raised in recent studies (Hansen et al ., 2012; Peng , 2013). Tourism and hospitality researchers have yet to develop an integrated theoretical framework of the 4P model that explains the unique, independent effects of tourism organizations’ employees to help organizations more fully leverage the influence of the 4P model on creativity.
