How to Disrupt Your Industry: Lessons from an Innovation Icon

• What does it really take to invent our future? Creating value is just the beginning. To make money from innovation, you must drive your industry’s evolution — even before the industry exists.
• As one of the most successful entrepreneurial innovators today, speaker Alexandra Wilkis Wilson shares the key skills that people need, including spotting value opportunities in new or underserved markets, moving ideas from value creation (revenues) to value capture (profits), building a process around value (not value around the process), selecting the right talent to execute…and much more.
• This is a critical presentation for all business people looking to maximize growth in the future.

Creating Innovation in The Workplace

• Referencing examples from her own experiences as an entrepreneur, adviser and angel investor, speaker Alexandra Wilkis Wilson examines teamwork at every level of the game, including the skills competency and personalities which compliment the other team members, sharing a common approach and purpose, and marrying these two a structure that enables both creativity and efficient work production, and creating mutual accountability toward that ultimate purpose… all frameworks for building a high-performance team.
