In this week’s Thursday Thought, we delve into the complexities of navigating change from within. Using quotes, research, and insights from the Innovation Show, we explore how our perception of individuality vs. being part of a larger whole affects our ability to adapt. Drawing parallels with superorganisms like beehives, the episode discusses how business and economic cycles, like Kondratiev waves, shape our world. Highlighting examples from companies like Sony, we examine the ‘inside view’ trap and the importance of stepping outside our immediate focus to see the bigger picture. Join us as we read the label from outside the jar and prepare for the future.
