In this conversation about optimism, curiosity, resilience, data and action, we speak to Navin Kunde. Dr. Navin Kunde currently leads the Open Innovation group at The Clorox Company, a US-based consumer goods company in the Fortune 500.

The Open Innovation group enables business leaders and innovation teams to make better decisions by helping them access and synthesize data, learn from external experts, and build partnerships. Navin has delivered over 500 speaking engagements and workshop presentations to senior executives and their staff across North America, Asia-Pacific, and Europe.

Before joining Clorox, Navin spent seven years at The Corporate Executive Board in Washington DC, advising Global 1000 innovation and operations executives.

He lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with his wife and two daughters and has been known to have some of his best inspiration while thinking in a park outside even if he's being interrupted by wild turkeys.
