I discovered a cool site with some interesting podcasts from Stanford University. One in particular that I listened to was one by Marissa Mayer from Google where she points out nine lessons learned in being creative.
Some of the points I found interesting:
- Work with smart people
- Just like playing sports, you play better when you play with those who are better than you
- Don't be territorial about your ideas
- Look for new ideas everywhere
- Launch early and iterate instead of trying to make things perfect right away
- Rely on the data
- e.g., "How many people had problems with the UI?", "How many people did you test?"
- This makes political battles mostly disappear within the company
