The aim of the article is to reveal the interrelationships between the processes of motivation and creativity in the academic environment which could be used to support the success of the educational institution, and thus in the development of society. For the purpose of obtaining information, a questionnaire survey was carried out in 2019 focused on decisions on academic motivation and creativity. The sample consisted of n = 90 respondents working at one of the universities in Slovakia. The main finding was the confirmation of hypothesis HA: The development of creativity and motivation is influenced by similar factors. The output of the article is a proposal for a model of connecting key elements of effective decision-making on the development of creativity and motivation in the academic environment which would reflect on the rapidly changing environment. The educational institution can be described as creative only if the individual elements and processes in the university environment are creative. Members of the academic environment thus directly influence not only the development of the institution but also the development of young people and thus society.
