#Things to consider

  • When it comes to creative inspiration, job titles and hierarchy are meaningless.
  • I’ve made a policy of trying to hire people who are smarter than I am.
  • Their certainty about their existing systems had rendered them unable to see.
  • You don’t have to ask permission to take responsibility.
  • When experimentation is seen as necessary and productive, not as a frustrating waste of time, people will enjoy their work—even when it is confounding them.
  • And, by definition, ‘discovery’ means you don’t know the answer when you start.
  • As more people are added to any group, there is an inexorable drift toward inflexibility.
  • Everyone knows that a movie made entirely by committee would be mediocre.
