I tell friends, tours, and pretty much anybody who will listen that the reason “art” and “technology” are words that unite us here rather than divide us is named Ed Catmull. Here he generously makes it clear exactly how he did it.
Pixar is a community in the true sense of the word. We think that lasting relationships matter, and we share some basic beliefs: Talent is rare. Management’s job is not to prevent risk but to build the capability to recover when failures occur. It must be safe to tell the truth. We must constantly challenge all of our assumptions and search for the flaws that could destroy our culture.
Well worth reading.
The funny part is that I’d bet folding money that no other studio will take his advice.
