Innovation - from the Computerworld Shark Tank

"Boss complains at an all-hands meeting that his developers aren't being innovative enough. So when a new job opens up, this IT pilot fish submits the resume of a programmer who he knows is innovative. "I think the guy is qualified," hiring manager admits. "But I don't like to hire someone more knowledgeable than me. They keep making suggestions for doing things differently, and I just want someone who will do what I ask them to do." Says fish, "I always suspected some managers thought that way -- I just never met one who boldly admitted it.""
