I read Seth Godin’s blog every day.
This encouragement, today, hit a nerve:
"We don’t need pilots. We need instigators and navigators, rabble
rousers and innovators. People who can’t follow a checklist to save
their life, but invent the future every day."A client of mine remarked recently that his challenges in getting hired were due to the fact that corporation’s hire the "consistently adequate" — in a word, pilots — not creative, eclectic, multitalented professionals aka Genre Busters(TM).
But, was it a Pilot who created Google or Apple?
All together now: NO!
So, are you going to be a Pilot or a Rabble Rouser?
