+aciddevil - Monopolies don't die. Most of those are not big brands, they're monopolies. GM was on the brink of destruction during the Great Recession.
aciddevil Lego isn't that old and GM experienced serious financial trouble during the 08' recession. Marvel isn't an independent company, it belongs to Disney. The big super-corpotations like Disney, Viacom, Nestle, GE, etc. sound like what you mean. The thing is, the way those corporations stay afloat is by buying smaller companies and branching out into new industies. Essentially, they buy their very competition before it can be a substantial threat. Consider the entertainment industry which depends on creativity more than others: You'll notice big companies like google constantly investing into small upstarts like Niantic. You'll also see companies like Disney and EA buying up smaller IPs only to financially ruin them. As long as the market is at a net positive, you can get ahead by doing nothing more than owning the market itself.

Jordan Peterson helped develop Adeo Ressi's incubator The Founder Institute, he made the psychometric exams to judge incubees, called "Predictive admissions test" and "As of 2014, over 1,300 companies had been created from the program, 89% of which were still operational." Peterson talks about it in his Personality lecture, when speaking of the Big 5. So he does have a good background on what he's explaining here.

This sounds nice, but is completely wrong. 89% being "operational". What does that even mean? You can be unprofitable and "operational". Also, he doesn't understand statistics and is desperately trying to push scientifically inaccurate ideas about a "general cognitive abilities" and similar false ideas. None of the general psychological tests has a predictive power, at least when measured in real life achievements and hard metrics like money for example. Nassim Taleb, someone who understands this and who by the way is a real mathematician and knows what he is talking about, explained this multiple times. So , Jordan Peterson is desperately trying to promote his profession and standardised testing as a way to measure human potential. He is simply wrong.

Obviously, we all agree and disagree on certain things for a number of different reasons (a good thing). One of the most unfortunate reasons, however, that people who disagree with what Jordan Peterson says, is that when they examine some of his words/fixate/isolate certain words (like "creative" or "conscientious"), they forget to take into consideration his background in clinical psychology; he's not casually choosing these words, these are actual terms from the field of psychology (a worldwide, research-based field of study focusing on the mind and how it affects human behavior). Psychology has already "defined" such terms and continues to apply them to different groups of people (and yes, you can and must do that in order to actually study ourselves as a species)! It's vital to make an effort to understand the significant context in which the terms from the discussion at hand are derived from! Thanks for the video Big Think.

I can see a comparison to be made between the distribution he talks about here and the restaurant industry, particularly in successful creative restaurants. So for instance you typically have a creative leader who builds a menu designed to wow guests under a specific budget, so efficiency is often key to success. Remarkably, the people who peterson lists as analytical and managerial are the people who are usually given specialized positions with accountability only for their own work, and the creative types are often suited for managerial positions. Its also interesting to call into question why it is that employee abuse is so much more common when creative types are in positions of power.

Sometimes they oscillate in their ability to focus on the long-term (or strategic or creative or risky or new) and very often any such component just dies and it is too difficult in the managerial organization to get it back. The default in the managerial organization is to just fix current problems and maybe look a quarter or two ahead.

I understand where Peterson is coming from, but I have a problem with his limiting and limited definition of creativity. When I first heard him explain that ‘Not everyone is creative’ around two years ago, a developed quite a bit of worry and anxiety around, and frequently questioned, my own levels of creativity. I’ve been lucky enough to meet with a professor at my uni who’s studied the psychology of creativity quite a bit, and I now understand that Peterson limits his definition of creativity to the capital C creative, or the creator of novel and productive concepts/processes/products that significantly alter, or start a new, domain (e.g. famous inventors, seminal scientific researchers, groundbreaking artists, etc.). I think Peterson would do well to revise his statement to “Not everyone is so far along the continuum of creativity that they are able to create extremely useful, novel products that greatly alter or completely change the domain they’re working within.”

It's forever a balancing act between being a simple manager of people and a fosterer of creativity, exploration and curiosity. It drives you nuts because a lazy teacher can get the same "results" out of kids on standardised tests, and the teachers who want to be an inspiration and make their classrooms interesting for their creative kids, just give up and do the bare minimum because what's the point in pushing kids to think 1 or 2% more than to just get "a good grade"

What he's saying is so true. I worked for a company in the creative industry, each employee had lots of clients which made the money. One day, the administration changed, the new manager had university education in managerial but no background in the creative industry itself. She was only there to manage along with some staff who works in the industry. She was very good at implementing new rules and creating rigid orders, because I assume she was just putting her knowledge and education in management into practice. However, that left a negative impact on the creative employees. Under that new rigid management, one by one, each employee started leaving. As a consequence, that company weren't receiving as much clients anymore since the creative employees left, there was less money being made. Eventually, it did so bad that at one point, that new management staff was gone. One was probably put out the door or he quit and the manager also left for being under pressure... As Jordan Peterson Say, there should be a balance between managerial and creative people. no matter the education, no matter the experience, the company has chances of failing if there's an imbalance

I hope for their sake that they understand the balance and they don’t turn the company into something that cannot change in this shifting environment. Peterson is dead on.

I'm creative, it's part and parcel of being Dyslexic I think, and having ADHD makes me a very difficult person to myself and others. I have medication, but apparently it's bad, so I drink coffee and try to not break the rules and get lost. Always like watching Jordan Peterson, he understands people better than most I think.

Dyslexic has nothing to do with it by default, but you should maybe have the ADHD diagnosis double checked, especially during the 90s basically every "difficult child" got that diagnosis and if you tend to think laterally (likely hated school etc.) chances are high you were one.

There will always be a struggle between the people who do the work and the managers who don’t understand the work. This is unavoidable. What the smart owners recognize is that they are probably the creative type and they NEED to keep some of them around or nothing will actually get done. I will cave on the point that the creators need some shepherding to stay moving in the right direction but mostly I wish management was diminished more of the time.

In this case he's not wrong, but you note that the behavior doesn't change to reflect that.

You hear it expressed and likely think "oh, well, it's kinda obvious", but it unfolds with a level of inevitability (I'm sure someone forwarded the link to Tim Cook to see how he'd react). So some accusations are that the video is kinda shallow (which wouldn't be peterson's fault if he were approached to make a short video). It's a legitimate problem for business that come up with something actually original, leverage the idea by taking on implementers and then face the problem of whether they structured themselves poorly for change. But there is also a cult like emotional investment in supposed creative geniuses and industry titans, and a leftist might distrust this story about creatives as incomplete/overly stated or buying into companies' stories and their marketing departments' creation of mystique. A lot of companies never had a creative idea*. They simply continued an idea, stole someone else's idea and either delivered on implementation or were lucky (zuckerberg). Then people amused themselves by presenting themselves as brilliant, forward thinking, etc. I mean, a lot of our ideas are technology catching up to stuff we saw on star trek and a lot of the sense of something being revolutionary might start with the marketing department or framing your founder as a messiah. And reality vs myth does have implications when you look at societal norms around inequality. Peterson's work defends hierarchy to a point, whereas different shades of leftist either think hierarchy should be reduced or eliminated completely. As such, there will be pushback on theory that regards creatives as being special/separate as contributing to justifying masters and serfs. A lot of people listen to Peterson and just hear the bits and pieces that they think will - at least to a certain audience - justify Randian fantasies and right wing ordering structures. (some people are a little all or nothing. They can't agree with peterson but argue extents.) * I doubt google were the first to come up with the search engine. I doubt oracle came up with the database. Tesla didn't come up with the electric car. Apple and microsoft benefited from ideas stolen from xerox. Car companies still exist while perhaps only making incremental changes on a century old idea.

New terms on something that is patently obvious, to anyone who's ever ran a group of people trying to do anything. Though, I do appreciate the fact that someone points it out from time to time (even if it's a guy I really don't care for), because corporations are extremely bad about expecting their workers to simply be drones. And the trouble is, nowadays, the corporations are powerful enough to start legislating themselves into being "too big to fail", and stomping out any, and all competition by way of buying favorable governance. Example? The end of net neutrality will kill any upstarts, and stifle all creative force, as the the big players will simply make all the new "roads" require a toll.

I didn't wanna be her, and I resented her lack of divergence, and her lack of license to diverge. She was just towing the line, whether she agreed with it or not. I could see she would be more fulfilled doing something else. And she quit and trained to be a policewoman. She liked the authority of supervisorship. Me, I wanted to run the whole company, make all the major choices and set all the policies. I hated how I had no say and how they weren't interested in my opinion either.

I do wish that if he was going to capitalize on his appeal to people uninitiated to the war of ideas that he represents a particular and well fortified side of - all being well within his rights to pursue - that he would go about familiarizing his audience with his scope and his place on the larger stage of academia that the war is taking place on. Even more so I wish this point would be made clear in the articles criticizing his work but that'd be a bit self defeating.
