In this episode, I am joined by Rita McGrath to speak about her latest book Seeing Around Corners.

Rita is a top expert in innovation and growth strategies. She's a long-time professor at Columbia business school and an award-winning author of several books including the End of Competitive Advantage.

- What inflection points are and how to spot them?

- Why innovation is odd to manage?

- How to take advantage of inflection points if they happen gradually and then suddenly

- Use Discovery Driven Planning as you build a new venture to reduce your risks

- Snow melts at the edges; what does that mean and what to do about that?

- Indicators you can use to see around the corners

- Measure your company's level of innovation using the Innovation Proficiency Scale
