Episode Synopsis

On this episode, we'll be looking at “cost-ovation,” or innovation that gives your customers exactly what they want – and nothing more. We'll look at how companies like Planet Fitness have become wildly successful by challenging long-held assumptions about what their customers actually want and need, the three core traits shared by companies that excel at costovation, and why setting a vision with strategic objectives is such a key component for any innovation effort.Joining us for this episode to talk about all that and more is Stephen Wunker, the Managing Director and US Market Head of New Markets Advisors.
