Ep 81 Conference talk: ‘Why innovation is rarely authorized’ panel from HOW Design 2019

Every company says they want more innovation and leaders who are able to deliver it yet they are often more afraid of extinction than the change that’s necessary. As a result, innovation often happens when teams go against the rules and even risk their jobs to get it done. This episode is a replay of a panel discussion about innovation with two of the smartest and most inspirational people I know - best-selling author, Greg Larkin and ex-IDEO and current Managing Director of Expa, Sina Mossayeb.
