What if the secret to innovation isn't having a dedicated innovation department, but rather unleashing the creative potential in every employee? In my latest Remarkable People episode, I sat down with Duncan Wardle, former Head of Innovation and Creativity at Disney, who transformed how one of the world's most creative companies approaches innovation. Through captivating stories - like "borrowing" presidential turkeys for Disneyland - Duncan reveals practical tools that anyone can use to unlock their creative potential. His new book Imagination Emporium embodies his innovative approach, breaking traditional business book rules with AI integration and personalized learning paths. The key lesson? Innovation isn't about job titles or special departments - it's about creating an environment where everyone can contribute by replacing "no, because" thinking with "yes, and" possibilities.
