Everybody...

Everybody read this interview.

  • Interview with Paul Lavoie


  • Then ponder this...

    "ihaveanidea: What are the three biggest mistakes you’ve made?

    Paul Lavoie: ...The other thing I learnt in the first months of working was that “process” overwhelmed “product”. So we couldn’t be agile or fast. We had to follow a process, which halted things. So when I started Taxi, there was no process. It was fully organic. I would come to work with my partner Jane and we wouldn’t make ads until 2 or 3 pm because there was no process. So I realized that we need a little bit of process because a little bit of process liberates creativity. No process strangles it. Too much paralyzes it..."


    Agree/Disagree? Any thoughts?
