Listen Later

Scott Anthony says that you say that the most powerful untapped source of energy in the world right now is the innovative energy within large companies that is currently going to waste.

Scott is a Senior Partner at Innosight and a visiting professor at Dartmouth’s Tuck School of Business.. Based in Singapore since 2010, he has led Innosight’s expansion into the Asia-Pacific region as well as its venture capital activities (Innosight Ventures).

In his more than a decade with Innosight, Scott has advised senior corporate leaders on the topics of growth and innovation. He has extensive experience in emerging markets, particularly in India, China, and the Philippines.

Scott is also the author of numerous publications, most recently he is the co-author of the book “Eat, Sleep, Innovate: How to Make Creativity an Everyday Habit Inside Your Organization.”

Listen as Scott & Greg discuss “the BEANS,” stimulating curiosity, Eastman Kodak, and the hallmarks of successful internal behavior change initiatives within an organization.

Episode Quotes:

Writing a failure resume

So just go and write all the things that you did that didn't work and most critically what you learned from them. And the lesson that you inevitably take when you write a failure resumé is that failure isn't fatal. That you learn something from it. And life goes on.

The characteristics of innovation

I believe everybody has an intrinsic innovator inside of them because the characteristics of innovation are characteristics of human beings as a species. 

Inertia

When you go into a living breathing organization, you have to fight a pretty insidious enemy. And that enemy is inertia. It's the way that things are currently being done.
