A quick rcap, especially the parting shot:

To get ahead, hire more rebels, misfits, and oddballs!  They are at odds with other people because they view the world through a different lens and have different viewpoints you might need to get ahead. As freaks and misfits, they will ask different questions, are more prepared to challenge you with ‘why,’ and will bring the spirit of spontaneity and creativity to your team.

Bottom line?

Great minds don't think alike - they think differently!
