The post has a wonderful account about how Steve Jobs valued and protected creativity:

[Jobs] treated the process of creativity with a rare and a wonderful reverence. You see, I think he better than anyone understood that while ideas ultimately can be so powerful, they begin as fragile, barely formed thoughts, so easily missed, so easily compromised, so easily just squished.

One of the best things you can do for your fundraising is ban creativity killers from the ideation stage. Even the best ideas are weak and semi-formed at their beginnings. Let them thrive. Most of those new ideas are bad anyway -- but you can't tell that until you've developed them a bit.

Anyone who habitually kills ideas during a brainstorming session should be banned from brainstorming.
