People join us with a set of expectations about what they think is important. They want to please, impress, and show their worth. They really don't want to embarrass themselves by showing incomplete work or ill-conceived ideas, and they don't want to say something dumb in front of the director. The first step is to teach them that everyone at Pixar shows incomplete work, and everyone is free to make suggestions. When they realize this, the embarrassment goes away--and when the embarrassment goes away, people become more creative. By making the struggles to solve the problems safe to discuss, then everyone learns from--and inspires--one another. The whole activity becomes socially rewarding and productive. To participate fully each morning requires empathy, clarity, generosity, and the ability to listen. Dailies are designed to promote everyone's ability to be open to others, in the recognition that individual creativity is magnified by the people around you. The result: We see more clearly.
