Thoughts on Strategy, Leadership, Building a Culture of Innovation and Why Its All About People

Check out my interview with Bruce Walker where I share an insight into my background as an entrepreneur, how design not only became the foundation for the advisory work I do now but how it fuelled my passion for human-centred approaches to leadership and innovation. With insightful questions, Bruce cleverly helps me unpack my thoughts on how senior teams really ‘lead FOR innovation’, how they lead the kind of organisations that innovation comes from and how we build a culture of innovation, scale capability and transform how companies operate. I also share my thoughts on empathy, creativity, measuring innovation maturity and why current approaches to leadership development are broken and why I’m on a quest to change that.
