Creativity is at least half due to an inherited trait. Given that fact, you want to hire creative folks, since that gives you better odds to having creative new ideas within your organization.

After all, it’s not like you can call me up tomorrow and say “Can you have that creative new invention for me by 12 noon? I need it for my press conference.”
