Description
Be inspired to follow in the footsteps of the world-class innovators who’ve really rocked their roles! Any organization and businesses looking to succeed in the digital, global economy of today or tomorrow must INNOVATE TO SURVIVE.
And Innovation highlights the pioneers who have broken the mold and led the pack in a wide range of fields (including business and technology, engineering and energy, government and social policy, the arts and advertising, media, medicine and more).
Innovation expert, Kim Chandler McDonald underlines the common denominators linking these highly creative people, such as their compunction to tell their truth, unpalatable or not, their entrepreneurial instincts and their steadfast protection of their brands.
This book offers readers:
● understanding of innovation as a mindset rather than a process
● insight on how to start thinking like an innovator and into how this can assist them with their own careers and goals
● knowledge of how to cultivate innovation in their own team, department or business
● personal accounts from international innovators

➽ author Seth Godin;
➽ Zappos CEO and instigator of Las Vegas’ transformational Downtown project, Tony Hsieh;
➽ Digital Royalty CEO Amy Jo Martin;
➽ and Chief Innovation Officer at the marketing agency MDC Partners, Faris Yakob.
