New and meaningful juxtaposing of seemingly diverse and unrelated elements has historically been the key capability of the imaginative mind. In this era of specialization and categorization, there is an acute need for this ability and for the person who possesses it-let us call that person a generalist/specialist.

Now, although great creative capability must still be singular effort, there exists the need for a team approach to problem solving..
