caption_attribution_description: English: Europe Stage, Sziget Festival. Taken on the 13th of August, 2016. Therr Maitz: " Anyone can offer an idea, then they just need to realize, and here already includes managerial mechanism: all should work. Are creative people always so: they used to gush with ideas, but when it comes to their implementation, the problems start. To implement the idea of good, one hundred percent – even more difficult. So you need a clear understanding of who manages the process who is responsible. In Therr Maitz I carry it, but otherwise I’m open to various proposals and, by the way, this is also one of the important qualities for the team leader to be able sometimes to give other people ideas as their own (laughs)" Source: The leader Therr Maitz Anton Belyaev: “the Format is evil” http://edesknews.com/the-leader-therr-maitz-anton-belyaev-the-format-is-evil/ Magyar: Europa Színpad, Sziget Fesztivál. A felvétel 2016. augusztus 13-án készült. Therr Maitz és zenei csoportja. Therr Maitz: Bárkinek lehet egy ötlete. Meg kell valósítani azt az ötletet és ehhez már vezetési folyamatra van szükség: mindennek működnie kell. A kreativ emberek mindig ilyenek: tele vannak ötletekkel, de amikor a megvalósításra kerül sor előjönnek a problémák. Egy száz százalékosan jó ötlet megvalósítása még nehezebb. Úgyhogy szükséges az, hogy világosan lássuk azt, hogy ki kezeli az egész folyamatot, ki a felelős az eredményért. A Therr Maitz-ban én vagyok a vezető, de egyébként nyitott vagyok a különböző javaslatokra ami a vezető fontos tulajdonsága kell legyen. Ahogy az is, hogy a saját ötleteit átadja az övéinek (nevet).
