Hi Richard,

Thank you for sharing your experience; it sounds like you agree that the skier I hired could rightly be called creative. What may need highlighting is that it wasn't necessarily his answering my question with a skiing example that got him hired, it was just that he understood how creativity informed his decision-making. Most people are clueless about how creativity is working hand in hand with intellect to solve problems.

Definitely agree that finance flogs data - analysis paralysis - or one of the few examples charted by our profession of the left-brain's limitations. We need much more such discourse.

Thanks for the meditation suggestion!

Hope the looooooong summer days in Norway treat you well!

Jason
