Recommendation

Ever wonder why it took a global pandemic for the world to embrace working from home, or why no one put wheels on suitcases until the 1980s? In this engaging article, entrepreneur Michael Simmons offers a brief overview of key instances when humanity was slow to embrace change and innovation, and explores why this is so often the case. Through careful analysis, Simmons reveals how conventional wisdom keeps society from seeing great opportunities. He also proposes a five-part mind-set that can help people get ahead of the innovation curve.

Take-Aways

  • People miss out on great innovations because they listen to conventional wisdom.
  • Seeking change rather than waiting for it speeds up innovative progress.
