Growing up fast

 We talk a lot about learning by doing in the agile innovation process, especially in the context of start-ups.  But it’s hard to capture that learning as you go along when so much else is happening as you desperately try to find your way through the fog of uncertainty.  Which is why it’s really valuable to have someone who runs a successful start-up which is now scaling well to share their insights . And even more so if they’ve managed to capture it in the form of a book which carries some really valuable lessons which have been learned the hard way!  This podcast features Zach Rattner, founder and CTO of Yembo and author of ‘Grow up fast!’, a great book which captures some powerful learning about innovation and entrepreneurship You can more about his book hereAnd the video version of this interview hereIf you'd like to explore more innovation stories, or access a wide range of resources to help work with innovation, then please visit my website here.You can find a rich variety of cases, tools, videos, activities and other resources - as well as my innovation blog.Or subscribe to my YouTube channel here
