Key Takeaways:
[1:50] Does Carla consider herself a marketer or an innovator?
[6:35] What can CMOs do to cultivate an innovation mindset for themselves?
[7:25] We have to look beyond just innovating the technology and also cultivate our people.
[8:20] We might promote someone into a new role, but we do not take into consideration how people show up in the world.
[9:15] Want to drive innovation? Focus on the people.
[13:35] A lot of people, which is a good thing, believe their product is different, but this blind faith is almost used as a crutch and it leaves companies open to being disrupted by others.
[17:35] What inspired Carla to write her book, Re:Think Innovation?
[19:00] Have you ever felt that you have a really creative team on staff, but you just can’t figure out who they are?
[20:35] Carla wanted to help people take inspiration from the world around them and connect the dots with what they do.
[23:00] Not a lot of executives want to “herd cats” and that’s what it can often sound like if they have a large team of creative thinkers on staff.
[25:45] Sometimes CMOs miss the importance of content. That’s an area of expertise you must be well-versed on.
[29:15] Carla is excited to head to Montana in a few weeks for a much-needed break!
