Unconventional Wisdom

If you’ve listened to this show before, you know that one of the key premises is that Innovation is fundamentally about people and not process - that’s it requires a unique mindset.  

This is what I call the Innovator’s Spirit — which are the beliefs that enable the behaviors that make innovation possible.

The challenge for many of us is that our life experiences have created beliefs that actually get in the way of innovation.  We have seen things, done things and have been told things that create “false truths” which limit our ability to take risk and challenge the status quo, that convince us to settle for good enough and accept artificial boundary conditions.

These limits on our thinking about what’s possible are all around us, so on today’s episode I’m going to challenge several ideas that many people consider conventional wisdom.  

To help me do this, I’ve asked Kyle Hagge, the producer of Innovator’s of Tap and an aspiring entrepreneur to join me on this side of the microphone as we challenge the value of some age-old ideas.

You can follow the podcast and host Chuck Swoboda on Twitter for further exploration and discussion on innovation.

The episode is also available wherever else you listen to podcasts. Enjoy!
