Makes sense. There's been some interesting MIT research that supports your point about how unequal team contributions inhibit team performance

I like your point about creativity best being done in pairs - I guess it speaks to the traditional art director/copywriter combination. Lots of brainstorming sessions seem to happen in big groups (in the mistaken belief perhaps that more/better ideas will come if more people are there

As you say it seems as though with anything vaguely tech related people increasingly assume that existing knowledge is defunct - better to be smarter about recognising that some things change, and some don't

HI Matthew. That's really interesting - I like your approach. When I was still in corporate world a coach forced me to write down the five most important things that my future career must have, if I was to be happy. I realised then that working in the job I had at the time wouldn't fulfill that, so I left. If I'm honest, I didn't have a clear picture of what I wanted to do next but I kind of iterated my way there. I think that too often, we place an unrealistic expectation on ourselves to define exactly what our next move would be, rather than just think about the elements that are important and following those. Would be interested to hear how you get on with your quest - perhaps we could grab a coffee sometime
