“Creativity, the biggest determiner of #successful #executives, is killed in the #junior ranks. Maintenance of predetermined procedures is emphasized. This is how you end up with managers and not leaders.
You have a senior leadership that knows all the paperwork but cannot understand a problem and how to solve it.”
#Risk and #creativity. Again
I’m seeing how the mediocre teachers all over the planet install fear and disbelief in our kids’ capacity to create, very early in school
And so, we get excellent line #producers in #cinema (instead of executive risk-takers), excellent mid-level programmers in #IT (instead of non-conforming inventors), great shop-floor managers in #Amazon warehouses (instead of big-picture leaders)…
All gradually replaced by instructions-following #automation. 😕
Now, if you think even larger and recall that the #scientific method requires an ability to invent a good explanation of a phenomenon (versus the “read from Mother #Nature’s Book” for an induction from experience),
you get… people who make robots vs anti-vaxxers and flat-Earthers.
Same patterns on all levels.
Surprisingly succinct 15 differences between ordinary and #successful (high-achieving) people: lifehack.org/282213/15-diff… —I agree with most ;)
