A PUBLICATION OF THE INNOVATION GROUP

Fostering a Culture of Collaboration 
by Evan Davis, Vice President & General Counsel, SugarHouse Casino
"Just because you're a musician doesn't mean all your ideas are about music. So every once in a while, I get an idea about plumbing, I get an idea about city government, and they come the way they come."
The Grateful Dead's late, great Jerry Garcia had a number of unique insights during his 53 years on Earth. But the notion that your ideas don't need to follow your expertise is the one that sticks with me the most. Just because you're good at one thing doesn't mean that you can't have insights about something else. It sounds simple, but think about your company; is that how meetings, conference calls, and water cooler discussions really work?
