Interesting points about the photographic memory! I think successful people are not processing all the information, but are able to ask for the most important information (or even feel what really matters?) It's almost a paradox; the more information you have available, the worse it can get, because you can so easily get lost and create a lot of overhead. (God forbid you are struggling with decision making on top!)
For example, I remember our Corporate controlling catalog at Daimler Financial had over 100 pages of definitions and KPIs, but what really mattered was just small parts of it.
Probably emperors and kings were just as good with people and asking the right questions to make good decisions as today's best leaders are? I guess its about correctly reading the information and people. And then if you are not really a numbers guy maybe get a numbers guy to sit next to you.
I feel readily available information overload is both, a blessing and a curse.
