1h06 | 02/26/2025

Description

What is the link between creativity, great ideas and resilience?

My guest this week is the perfect person to help answer that question - Jodie Newman of the Business Allotment joins me for the final episode in this month's mini-series on Resilience. We discuss how flexibility is essential for creative thinking and resilience alike, especially when faced with challenges or difficult times.

We also talk about democratising creativity, highlighting that great ideas can come from anyone in an organisation. And the role of AI in business and customer experience, how true creativity cannot be replaced by technology, as well as the common pitfalls in decision-making, the importance of maintaining communication, and the value of creativity in overcoming challenges. Loads of great ideas, lessons, and thoughts on leadership and business in this episode, benefiting from Jodie's 20 years of running a business.

Don't miss it, listen/watch and learn why ideas should be your competitive advantage!
