listen louder - innovation and creativity in the future
DESCRIPTION
Every organisation must prepare for the abandonment of everything it does. The future will belong to those companies and organisations that manage to re-invent themselves. This requires a mindset, where you listen louder to other people. You engage more with your customers. You team up with your competitors. You dare to think differently. Creativity is the courage to imagine or invent something new. Innovation is these ideas transformed into real life. Both things requires an open mind without fear. The future belongs to the people with great ideas. Capital isn’t so important in business. Experience isn’t so important. You can get both these things. What is important is ideas. If you have ideas, you have the main asset you need, and there isn’t any limit to what you can do with your business and your life.

“Capital isn’t so important in business. Experience
isn’t so important. You can get both these things. What
