What Matters in Innovation — July 9, 2021

By Kaitlin Milliken, Collin Robisheaux2021-07-09T13:00:00+01:00

  • No comments

What mattered in innovation this week? Innovation Leader’s Scott Kirsner joins Derisk CEO Alex Slawsby and MileZero Founder Robyn Bolton to discuss. That includes some of the innovation news that you may have missed this week, and why it matters for innovators working in big organizations.

 

In this installment: what part of the design thinking process might be BS, a review of Piaggio Fast Forward’s Gita robot, and speculation surrounding Amazon’s CEO change.

 

Kirsner also mentions Innovation Leader’s upcoming webcasts on designing for change and revitalizing a languishing innovation program.
