✅ Why Every Leader Must Rethink Innovation | With Rich Braden & Tessa Forshaw

Innovation isn’t just for the “creative few”—it’s a skill every leader already has. In this powerful episode of Partnering Leadership, Mahan Tavakoli speaks with Tessa Forshaw and Rich Braden, co-authors of Innovation-ish, to unpack what real innovation looks like in today’s world.

✅Drawing from their experience at Stanford and Harvard, they break down:
✅Why creativity is more discipline than talent
✅How diverse teams outperform lone geniuses
✅The role of psychological safety in unlocking ideas
✅Why traditional brainstorming often fails
✅How leaders can overcome fear, hierarchy & cognitive caution
✅The difference between real innovation and “innovation theater”

They also explore the responsibilities that come with creating new solutions—especially in an AI-driven world—reminding us that technology enhances creativity, but human judgment and curiosity remain irreplaceable.

Perfect for CEOs and senior leaders who want to build a culture of everyday innovation—not performance, not buzzwords, but real impact.
