One of the most interesting innovations to come out of the coronavirus crisis (and it seems that nothing ever changes unless there is a crisis) is that the myth of location has been dispelled – we no longer need to gather in the same physical space in order to do much work. Sure, there is…
The post the future of work: organizing around ideas instead of location appeared first on hellofuture.
I don’t know about you, but I’m just about ready to say the above, loudly and clearly, uncensored. I am about to give up on the whole idea of helping corporates to build a more innovative culture, to help them to create new innovative products, to dig deep into their customer’s jobs-to-be-done, and solve them.…

I recently returned from a week in Palm Springs. Being a digital nomad, I find that I can work from anywhere in the world. Still, it helps when I’m in the contiguous United States; as most of my customers are scattered across North America, it’s easier to get on Zoom calls and connect with the…

Sales sucks. Several years ago, I worked for a web design company here in Silicon Valley. I won’t tell you how long ago it was, but at the time, we were able to charge customers upwards of $1M to build a single web page. I was hired as the Director of Engineering – my small…

Recently, I had Jake Jorgovan of Lead Cookie and Content Allies on my show to discuss his business building framework. Jake is a serial entrepreneur who has built several businesses over time. I asked him on my show after sending a note to his newsletter subscribers, which piqued my curiosity. As an innovation guy, I…

Have you ever noticed that almost everything in our world ends up in two camps? Democrat or Republican, Liberal or Conservative, Jeep or Bronco, Black or White, Male or female? For some reason, we tend to simplify things down to a binary choice – maybe it’s easier for our brains to process – instead of…
