In our society, there’s a prevailing tendency to credit individuals for innovation and progress. But here’s the truth: Lone genius is a myth. Innovation comes from collaboration, not individuals.
In their session, these bestselling authors will address why the lone genius myth persists and outline the conditions that make innovation possible. Together we’ll learn how we can incentivize more innovation in the workplace and on larger cultural levels.
Don't miss this opportunity to take your organization’s approach and results to the next level!
