Innovation Domination in 1, 2, 3!

BIL Episode #1: Innovation Domination in 1, 2, 3!

While in college I sought out mentorship from entrepreneurs and other business owners from a multitude of Industries and very very importantly different stages of growth and their own businesses and companies

I offered to be their assistant for free. I gave them a certain amount of hours per week and I said I will drive you to meetings... I will take all your notes... I will categorize whatever you need me to do.

I like to see how things connect... how they relate...and how they can be better utilized. my mind works that way naturally. So I immediately started observing, asking open questions, and provided value right away.  

I started to really hone in on some of the frustrations that they were experiencing.  I saw that based on the different industries and stages that they were in their business journey they needed to develop top-performing teams with a 360-degree skill set. They felt strapped for time because they hadn't honed in on the leverage in their business and themselves.

That when they got a competitive advantage it was over quickly, and easily replicated. It takes a multidisciplinary approach to really understanding all the different areas to leverage simultaneously so it's harder for their competitors to replicate what you are doing

THE shift that made them The Solution

That's when I realized the shift I needed to make to help my mentors!!!

... successful businesses grow systematically and pour and refine solid foundations to begin with … so  when they're ready to Scale to the next level you go back and kind of refine them to transition  to being build on top of

Using that  approach to business and then add in Innovative leverage points… is the  exact combination that  together will exponentially grow the business 

It makes that business the solution in the market and builds to the top competitors in that industry. 

There is a better way!

I was really adamant that there was a better way to continue to build the business of the entrepreneurs I was being mentored by

I learned from The frustration of seeing all the moving parts and having siloed skill sets was detrimental to their business growth and it was frustrating them because they weren't able to leverage their time, create their freedom and have the impact they had set out on this entrepreneurial journey to have. 

It was also a constant battle of the new tactic being easily replicable and it wasn't a long term competitive solution.

we needed an integrated approach to work ON the business and training teams to be able to have a multidisciplinary skillset to work simultaneously ON and IN the business

The 3 key areas…

So I broke down this at first seemingly big task into 3 areas that we can strategize, implement, measure, refine and get the results in.

  1. Build systematic foundations to scale a business. Including resources, skills, systems, teams. 
  2. Understand the different leverage points in a business. By understanding the 360-degree view of a successful business.
  3. How to approach bringing innovative and valuable solutions to the market beyond just products- because that was where the lasting competitive advantage lies!

THAT'S when we proved my innovative and integrated leadership system and framework. I have been using it with other entrepreneurs for almost 15 years now. I have had the pleasure of working alongside them and their teams. Creating, building, and collaborating as innovative leaders.

So if you’re wondering how you can get unstuck, scale a business strategically, bring innovative solutions to the market, standing out as an industry leader… or maybe your plotting innovative world domination - you just heard my 360-degree approach to do just that.
