Steve Jobs hired a career juggler to teach programming to developers
I particularly like the advice on how to hire:<p>> 1. You want to find people with mastery, true depth.<p>> 2. The problem is, that isn’t enough. You need people who had failed and recovered. The core skill of innovators is error recovery, not failure avoidance.<p>> 3. Breadth, meaning curiosity about things beyond what you’re deep in.<p>> 4. Collaboration. Not a synonym for cooperation, but the ability to magnify others.<p>As a separate aside, I didn’t realize Apple invested <i>that</i> much in training.
