📣 Excited to Announce an 8-Part Series on Innovation Frameworks & Emerging Technologies! #Innovation isn’t just about having great ideas. If it were, everyone would do it—and it wouldn't be a profession. Having worked at pioneering companies like IDEO and Disney, and on groundbreaking projects such as the F-35 fighter jet and manufacturing in space, I can tell you: innovation is a career. It’s a methodical process, similar to that of a visionary founder, and like any skill, it can be learned. That’s why I’m launching this series! 🚀 This quarter (Oct-Dec) I’ll share practical tips, tools, frameworks, and real-world experiences from my nearly 20 years of tech-based innovation. From my time as a founder, civil servant, diplomat, product creator, business designer, corporate executive, and angel/VC investor, I’ve seen some organizations thrive with innovation while others hit roadblocks. So, how do you actually get innovation done? What does it look like in practice? 🌟 This series will break it down. Here’s what I’ll cover: 1️⃣ Parts 1-4: Innovation #frameworks: How to build strong, multidisciplinary teams, craft effective strategies, and work collaboratively for success. 2️⃣ Parts 5-8: Emerging #technologies: From AI and Robotics to Quantum Computing and 3D/4D, we’ll explore how these innovations will reshape industries, economies, and even societies. This isn’t just for big companies! Whether you're leading a startup, working in government, or driving new product development in a larger organization, this series will be a simple how-to guide to innovation, giving you insights to tackle today’s challenges and prepare for tomorrow’s opportunities. 💬 Let’s make this interactive! I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences. Got questions or want to share your own stories about innovation?
