We discuss how leaders can strike the right balance between creating something entirely new and innovating on something that already exists. We also share our thoughts on the role of A.I. in speeding up innovation, why collaboration is important, and how organizations can put strategic change into effect.We offer some insights into how leaders can stay ahead in an industry that is always evolving and changing. We talk about the challenges of gaining team buy-in, how to manage incremental improvements while also encouraging bold creation, and why it’s crucial to set clear, actionable steps after every planning session. We also discuss the idea of "minimum viable products" and how launching small ideas that can be tested can lead to truly meaningful innovation.We hope that you will tune in for our conversation on how staying curious, facilitating collaboration, and having a mindset focused on growth can really transform the way that credit unions serve their members!Find the full show notes on cuinsight.com.Subscribe on: Apple Podcasts and SpotifyBooks mentioned on The CUInsight Experience podcast: Book List
