Innovation
For breakthrough ideas read the unreadable

Do you ever get this feeling that when you read the same stuff over and over again and then you try to read something completely unrelated you become bored very easily? Well that’s a very bad problem to have if you want to get into the business of ‘doing [...]
Why should people learn to innovate?
In my entrepreneurial journey I’ve come across people who pretty much don’t care about ‘innovation’ but what they do care about is how they can extract (notice I said extract and not create) more value from their customers. It’s fair to say that those of us who preach the ‘there’s always a better way’ gospel [...]

Disrupt yourself to change the game you play in
If you can’t solve a problem, it’s because you’re playing by the rules. – Paul Arden

Build innovation into the core of your business
