One of Thomas Edison's assistants once remarked that "In reality, Edison was a collective noun and meant the work of many men". There is a mythology of creativity being the loner who goes out and creates breakthroughs. More often than not a breakthrough is the work of many people but just one can put their name to it.
We humans are social creatures and to break free from a well known paradigm of doing things, we really need people in our corner who believe in us. If you have an idea, you will need to share it to make it happen.
