The purpose of this research is to find out whether creative behaviour within organisation is related to the employee's position in the organisation and to the size and ownership type of the organisation. 337 participants of the research were asked to fill in the Creativity in Workplace Questionnaire KAMP (Kwasniewska 2005) (Polish: Kwestionariusz Aktywnosci Twórczej w Miejscu Pracy) which was constructed for the purpose of this survey. According to the hypotheses, results of the research have shown that most creative in their workplaces are people occupying high positions in small, private organisations. Nowadays, managers seem to face the challenge of creating climate supporting creativity on each level of organizational hierarchy. Such climate is necessary in both private and governmental institutions no matter big or small.
