EP 64: Innovation through Thinking Sideways


Listen Later

What ways could people have escaped from the Titanic? How can we unlock talent in gifted people who are framed as less? We explore how we can be fixed in our mindsets and how there are techniques to unlock their thinking.
We discuss a new kind of school and approach with Eagle Hill School.
We discuss how AI and humanity can co-operate for even better results than working separately.
We talk to "Captain Sideways" a.k.a. Dr. Tony McCaffrey, CTO, Innovation Accelerator, Inc. and Director of Entrepreneurial Studies at Eagle Hill School.
