In our recent book The Future Reinvented, we are argued that, in the face of seemingly unprecedented change across society, learning at every level is central to survival and growth.

In my last post I tried to illustrate the importance (and the challenges) of data to digital transformation. This is often a complex and difficult idea for people to understand - why is "data" so hard? Why can't computer systems work more effectively? For example, my father called me over the weekend to ask why his doctors can't get his electronic medical records correct.

Most doctors would agree that medicine, contrary to popular belief, is part science, but mostly art. Most of medical practice is not evidence based. On the other hand, there seems to be some argument whether entrepreneurship is an art, a science or both. Based on my experience of teaching and practicing both, here’s my two cents: The underlying foundation.

What would you have to do to make your company, and its product, so essential to your customer that they would refuse to let your business die? Imagine that kind of passion for what you do. Imagine a customer base so emotionally invested in the unique characteristics and qualities of your particular brand that they […].

Originally published in Atlanta Business Chronicle. Modern business culture feels a bit like the age of the entrepreneur. And in many ways, it is. There are movies and television series made about entrepreneurs. Startups Facebook and Google (now part of Alphabet) are now Fortune 100 companies, ranked #76 and #22, respectively. And entrepreneurs such as Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos and Sara Blakely have achieved rock star status, building vast followings and a level of attention typically reserved

While this is an article about education for social innovation, it is supremely relevant to the education and practice of any corporate innovator in today’s world. Its central thesis is that we need to start thinking of innovation as a way to change complex systems rather than just attempting to ‘solve problems’, and teaching as such.

That doesn’t prevent Kim and Mauborgne (of Blue Ocean Strategy fame) from weighing in with their perspective on the topic of disruption. That other building block is what we call nondisruptive creation , which offers a new way of thinking about what’s possible.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

A good idea is worth nothing without great execution… ideas are great. But in a weird way it’s almost like they’re meaningless if they don’t actually make a difference in our lives. So begins this Freakonomics podcast. Freakonomics is known for delving interesting (and many times obscure) topics and in this episode, they dive into creativity and innovation.

Expanding their horizons in the work environment can be quite an undertaking, not least because we are inundated with our own work. But while we can place too much focus on the act of hitting targets and deadlines, if we don’t take responsibility for our employees’ progression, will they stay with us?
