You are not your idea, and if you identify too closely with your ideas, you will take offense when they are challenged.

You can give a great film idea to a mediocre team and they may screw it up, but if you give a mediocre idea to a great team, they will turn it into a great film.

If you aren't experiencing failure, then you are making a far worse mistake: You are being driven by the desire to avoid it.

I love solving the problems of having groups work together and removing barriers. But to actually turn around and be in the center of that is an awkward place to be.

I actually feel awkward being at the center of attention.

For me, creativity includes problem-solving. That's the broad definition of it.

Creativity doesn't follow titles. It just comes from where it comes from.
