Title Chief Strategist and Founder

Organization Principled Innovation LLC

What are five keys to innovation? The "key" to innovation is "and": freedom AND discipline, foresight AND insight, imagination AND execution, creativity AND capability, inclusivity AND responsibility.

What are the keys to collaboration across traditional boundaries? Without trust, there is no possibility for meaningful collaboration. Trust makes it safe to imagine limitless possibilities, and sparks the passion necessary to bring those possibilities into reality.

What talents or resources do you bring to this community? The most important attribute I bring to this community is my interest in smart conversations with smart people. I look forward to having many of them during BIF-3!

Dream partnerships: Which people, organizations, or industry sectors would you or your organization most want to partner with? I'm open to collaborating with anyone. Let's explore the possibilities!
