Leadership and innovation are a combination of leadership styles that influence employees to produce creative ideas, products, and services. It is also about figuring out how to add value to an organization and, like with most practices, reaching mastery of leadership and innovation starts within the person herself- or himself. It is the ability to inspire productive action in yourself and empower others during times of creation, invention, uncertainty, and risk. Today’s guest is Mauro Porcini, Chief design officer at PepsiCo and Author of The Human Side of Innovation: The Power of People in Love with People.
