“The greatest innovation you create is yourself.”
Jeff DeGraff
One day it hits you: the game has changed. You no longer feel like you are growing. The job has become tedious or unrewarding. Fear and greed are no longer pushing you forward. The spark is gone.
What if you were a product or a service? How you make yourself better or new? You would innovate you. But how?
You would do an inventory of what gives you energy and what takes it. You would assess your real strengths and weaknesses. You would tell your story in new ways. You would find the edges of what is possible. You would make intelligent decisions and rebalance the portfolio of your life. You would develop some simple guiding principles to move forward. You would run some small experiments to see what really works and what doesn’t. You would innovation you.
In this lively and inspirational session, the best practices from the most innovative organizations in the world will be explored. Their strategies and tactics will be explained, and more importantly, how they can be applied to your own life. It will provide pointers on how to aim for high quality targets, enlist deep and diverse domain expertise, take multiple shots on goal, and learn from experience and experiments. It will demonstrate how to make yourself new and improved, and how to help others do the same.
