18The Dawn of the Creative Age Theres a whole
new class of workers in the U.S. thats
38-million strong the creative class. At its
core are the scientists, engineers, architects,
designers, educators, artists, musicians and
entertainers whose economic function is to create
new ideas, new technology, or new content. Also
included are the creative professions of business
and finance, law, healthcare and related fields,
in which knowledge workers engage in complex
problem solving that involves a great deal of
independent judgment. Today the creative sector
of the U.S. economy, broadly defined, employs
more than 30 of the workforce (more than all of
manufacturing) and accounts for more than half of
all wage and salary income (some 2
trillion)almost as much as the manufacturing and
service sectors together. Indeed, the United
States has now entered what I call the Creative
Age. Americas Looming Creativity Crisis/

parent-teacher conference and were informed that
our budding refrigerator artist, Christopher,
would be receiving a grade of Unsatisfactory in
art. We were shocked. How could any childlet
alone our childreceive a poor grade in art at
such a young age? His teacher informed us that
he had refused to color within the lines, which
was a state requirement for demonstrating

73Ye gads Thomas Stanley has not only found no
correlation between success in school and an
ability to accumulate wealth, hes actually found
a negative correlation. It seems that
school-related evaluations are poor predictors of
economic success, Stanley concluded. What did
predict success was a willingness to take risks.
Yet the success-failure standards of most schools
penalized risk takers. Most educational systems
reward those who play it safe. As a result, those
who do well in school find it hard to take risks
later on.Richard Farson Ralph Keyes, Whoever

141Deloitte was doing a great job of hiring
high-performing women in fact, women often
earned higher performance ratings than men in
their first years with the firm. Yet the
percentage of women decreased with step up the
career ladder. Most women werent leaving to
raise families they had weighed their options in
Deloittes male-dominated culture and found them
wanting. Many, dissatisfied with a culture they
perceived as endemic to professional service

160Leaders (Teachers) Do Not Transform People!
Instead leaders (1) provide a context which is
marked by (2) access to a luxuriant portfolio of
meaningful opportunities (projects) which (3)
allow people to fully (and safely, mostlycaveat
they dont engage unless theyre mad about
something) express their innate curiosity and
(4) engage in a vigorous discovery voyage (alone
and in small teams, assisted by an extensive
self-constructed network) by which those people
(5) go to-create places they (and their
mentors-teachers-leaders) had never dreamed
existedand then the leaders (6) applaud like
hell and stage photo-ops to commemorate the
bravery of their followers explorations!

162You must realize that how you invest your human

your future options. Take a job for what it
teaches you, not for what it pays. Instead of a

yourself in 5 years? youll ask, If I invest my
mental assets with you for 5 years, how much will
they appreciate? How much will my portfolio of
career options grow? Stan Davis Christopher
