Ed Catmull has been honored with five Academy Awards including the Gordon E. Sawyer Award for a lifetime of contributions and leadership in the field of computer graphics for the motion picture industry. His book Creativity, Inc. is a distillation of the management principles he has used to lead one of the world’s most creative cultures. This session will explore the nerve center of Pixar—the meetings, postmortems and “Braintrust” sessions where some of the most successful films in history have been made.
