Welcome to Episode #430 with Ian Small, CEO of Evernote, the app that launched a personal productivity movement for knowledge workers around the world.   During this episode, Ian and I talk about how innovation is key to a company's future. Here are some highlights:

• Culture is super important within an organisation. If your culture is toxic, you're not going to get anywhere. If you have a supportive, empowering, high performance culture that allows every contributor to shine in their own way, there is a real potential of success in every employee in the organisation.
• Learn to listen. Listen to your employees. Listen to the past and to the present. Listen to the customers.
• If you can't innovate, you can't move forward.
• As a leader, strive for transparency and honesty. If you're not prepared to be fully transparent with the team and transparent with your customers and honest about the situation, then you're already building yourself a barrier before you start.
