Here’s to
the crazy ones.
The misfits.
The rebels.
The troublemakers.
The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.
They’re not fond of rules.
And they have no respect for the status quo.
You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them.
Because they change things.
They push the human race forward.
Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

I read this script in an Ashish’s office
in Hyderabad, India a week ago. While I had seen the Apple video on a web, the
written version had more impact. My
colleague and I like to consider ourselves the “crazy ones.” It then made us think, do all managers
consider themselves a “crazy one?” Has crazy now become baseline self opinion?
Would some admit to not being crazy in this context?

I like this too! As leaders we need to keep in mind that we, and our teams, can not be 'crazy' and lead us into the future in a fear-based. If we only work to reach the bar - out of fear - we'll never discover what is beyond it. We must give people room to innovate and try new ideas.
