Are we sure that RED isn't just a fancy term for "talent"? ;)
In our work, talent is something that is naturally born. Anyone can
learn to hit a baseball, but a real talented player can hit it in a
way that non-talented players will never master.
The other attributes are skills, experience, and knowledge. Skills and
knowledge are learned. Experience is acquired.
The sum of these attributes are what make up our abilities.
I'm guessing that RED is about people at the high end of these scales,
but talent isn't the key factor.
Regardless, on any given day, or any given project, a vastly
experienced
designer can be wrong a hundred times and an inexperienced designer
can be
right a hundred times. Experience matters far less than judgment.
"Good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad
judgments."
