Ever had a great idea shot down with “too risky” or “not a priority”? 😤It’s not because your idea isn’t good—it’s because people are wired to resist innovation. From negativity bias to fear of failure, we instinctively reject change. But that’s just the start…In this episode, I’ll reveal why innovation fails (and what you can do about it):✅ People resist change – Fear of mistakes, bias toward the status quo, and risk aversion all work against innovation.✅ Too many ideas can be a curse – Without a clear selection process, great ideas get lost in the chaos.✅ Being excited doesn’t mean others will be – If you can’t sell the value, your idea won’t take off.🔔 Watch now and learn how to overcome these innovation roadblocks!👉 Want to be the go-to person for big ideas?
