Is This True?

From Mavericks at Work:


"The skills we develop are skills we need everywhere in the organization. Why teach drawing to accountants? Because drawing class doesn't just teach people to draw. It teaches them to be more observant. There's no company on earth that wouldn't benefit from having people become more observant." -Randy Nelson, Dean of Pixar University [p.233]

I'd like to think that's true, but I doubt it.
