Hypothesis On Managing Creative Talents

Over the last century, humanity has given more emphasis on science than arts. It is undeniable that this shift in educational focus is the very root cause of today's lack of philosophical breakthroughs.

Let's take an impartial analysis of below creative devil's thought process.

"I'm not in objection with management's no-nonsense style of management. But I need management to understand that extremely creative people relies predominantly on the inner wild child's feelings, fantasies and tantrums that are generally not easily explainable or even expressable by clear logic and science. If it could be, you don't need an artist's impression to complement a scientist's creation for commercial market. You could have predicted the entire future with purely science and statistical modeling without fiction and dreams. The very reason philosophy exist is to complement science through a reverse engineering model. If only humans relied on science to predict the possibility of magic, necromancy or witchcraft, we wouldn't have gotten the privilege of being awed by magicians and controversially saved by spirits or even gods. I don't expect management to understand the wild child that's hiding inside me because neither could I figure what he is up to next. But for me to actively engage him, I would need the confidence that management could take the possibility of watching the wild child run naked amok the office painting smiles and soberness on strange faces and yet not insult his immaturity and wicked emotional self but give him some patient and neutral assessment, slightly more than fair leeway is perhaps necessary. I need to trust that management could contain the collateral damage I could potentially cause less to others but more so to my own intellectual and professional self. Creative people with a heart for others sometimes cause so much unintended harm to themselves not on their physical bodies but to their inner self-regard. They could have a gut vision that is so unworldly nobody will ever understand until a decade later that science could hardly catch up not because science is behind arts but because it is so rare to find an Artist who can embody both a Scientist and a Linguist. If you are lucky enough to get a real artist who has a logical scientist in him but fails to convey his logic in clearly audible or interpretable words, you risk missing the points that connect the potentially gamechanging creations of tomorrow. Scientists might take another 10 years to backward engineer the logic that connects his futuristic thoughts to the times before because no proper understanding of his ideas was easily documented for research. This is all the more stronger the reason you should understand how delicate it is to handle creative talents."
