Are you ready to take your innovation game to the next level? Carla Johnson, a renowned innovation architect, takes us on a thrilling journey through her unique approach that has us flipping the script on traditional innovation tactics. Johnson challenges us to work backward - to understand how people want to feel, then figure out how to make the magic happen. We also discover that intertwining our hobbies with our work can unlock a surge in productivity and engagement.
Johnson's innovative framework blazes a trail for us to weave our everyday passions into our professional lives. We dive head-first into the importance of leading with emotion, and why we can't always rely on metrics alone to measure success. We take a page from Seinfeld's book, a show almost axed before its eventual triumph, as a prime example of the potential pay-off of daring risks.
Johnson wraps up our conversation by emphasizing the vital role of curiosity and exposure to fresh ideas in the recipe for innovation. So gear up and join us on this ride of authenticity, innovation, and leadership.
