Why are business managers and public administrators not actively seeking to learn from the way masterchefs and jazz musicians innovatively create and deliver “top-of-the-chart” products for their customers and that too by excelling in getting their teams to work in tandem? How do these “creatives” pull off such excellence? One would assume that the idiosyncratic nature of their core strengths would prevent any normal teamwork!
Which strengthens the case that there is a stereotyping – that “creatives” are not usually adept at organisational excellence and “organised businesses” have organisational excellence ingrained in their DNAs - that has worked to the detriment of the latter. Perhaps it is time that organisations, especially businesses and governments, innovate in terms of getting more “creatives” to join their core leadership teams.
What do you say?
