How do you measure progress of your goals? My key reflection this week.💡 Determine how you measure #progress for your #goals and stick with it. It’s good to periodically review and check for alignment👍

“Evolution and innovation usually happen in the realm of the adjacent possible” I’m all for disruptive innovation but is it time leaders, teams and organisations get practical on their innovation fitness? 😊

Trust is built slowly. Trust is destroyed quickly. Trust can make complex things possible. The absence of trust can make simple things impossible. Trust powers relationships, businesses, nations. Trust is as precious as it is fragile.

Heavily reading #innovation ambidexterity theory. It’s not clear to me if a #corporateVC is a example of structural ambidexterity or if structural ambidexterity should be the new venture. Any thoughts / examples?

It pays to be an optimist - dresh from Harvard Business Review optimists are nearly seven times as likely as pessimists to exhibit sound financial health - Gary Vaynerchuk very aligned with your POV and message 👍🤪

care more about what your customers think of you than what your industry thinks of you. The former is the leading indicator of the latter.

Visited Dr Jordan B Peterson in #Melbourne 🙏 key takeaway, being grateful is having courage not being naive. Most would default to the latter. The rule for me is - find a way to be grateful for the things that bother you most. Now to find some practices 😊

Wanna be business builders have the fantasy that when they will leave corporate gig to be their own boss. The reality is your just trading for another boss. I’d rather customers be my boss and determine if I’m providing enough value than a Manager. Thoughts?

Gold from steve blank If you are a senior leader in a large organisation resist the temptation to ‘get everyone on board’ develop a plan and test not, rather than dilute by inviting everyone to contribute
