Often the smartest staff do not contribute as much as the less intellectually-gifted ones.

Smarts come in all kinds of flavors.

Experimental physicists do not think the same way as theoreticians do.

Engineers don’t think the same way psychologists do.

Some people think better when using their hands. Some when totally undistracted.

Maybe you’re a math genius.

Just because someone can’t solve a quadratic equation immediately in her head doesn’t mean you should ignore her.

When someone’s flavor of brains does not match yours, there’s maybe more reason for paying attention to her.
