In addition to the tangible takeaways, your team will develop a new set of tools that can be replicated, including: rapid prototyping, building cohesion, disruptive scenario thinking, forecasting the pace of change and the 6 Patterns of Opportunity.

JEREMY'S TOP 10 INNOVATION SPEAKER QUOTES:

Jeremy Gutsche Core Message

"You are capable of more than you think. Most people don't realize how close to new opportunity they actually are."
"Chaos creates opportunity. Post-pandemic, you will experience the greatest window of opportunity in your career."
"Innovation is not about big ideas, it is about little ideas you can make BIG."
"Innovation is broad and accessible. It can be a new product, service, or a just a different way of doing things."
"Everyone WANTS to innovate, but most people don't know how to make it happen. They don't 'break from the path' because most companies don't have innovation tactics."
"Seven traps cause us to stick to the path we are on. To break free, there are powerful tactics for disruptive thinking."
"The largest human trap is success, because it leads us to complacency.
"To adapt, you need a framework. Specifically, you must address the ability to change, a culture of innovation, opportunity hunting, adaptive innovation, and infectious messaging"
"The pace of change is exponential, but humans are terrible at predicting 3-5 years out. You need to be systematic and shock yourself into action."
"Push harder. Act sooner. Never give up."

"Jeremy made me a better leader, stretched my imagination and created opportunities for our organization that would not have happened without him. He energizes your team, gets them to think differently, and leads them to action-oriented ideas. His book became our manual for accelerating change and transforming our company from a newspaper to a business services company... and we went from Chapter 11 bankruptcy to one of the most profitable media companies in America. If you are an executive looking to extract better thinking from your team or make change happen when change is hard, Jeremy and his team are your solution.” — CEO
