This recent New York Times article is worth a read: The Rise of the New Groupthink. There’s a lot packed into it, and a few good takeaways:
- Creative work is best done in solitude
- Committees are not creative (beware ‘brainstorming’ sessions)
- The way you layout your office matters
- Interruptions are not harmless (more on that here)
- Be strategic and deliberate about collaboration
- Neither (collaboration or solitude) is good in extreme
