Ernest Kim wants to help you deliver innovation in the work you do every day.
From the profound (vaccine tech!) to the prosaic (self-sealing ketchup bottles!), innovations are more than ideas or new widgets. According to Ernest, an innovation is, “something that makes a person’s life better today than it was yesterday.” Based on his experience building Kicksology.net, leading innovations at Nike, and launching the ‘Learn, Make, Learn’ podcast, he’s distilled five principles for how you can think about and actually deliver innovation in your creative work. And if you need encouragement for why to embrace innovation during times of uncertainty, even if that’s when it seems risky, Ernest has thoughts for you too.
