The rules of business are constantly evolving – and it doesn't matter what industry you're in. To stay ahead, we must shift our focus from merely keeping up with the competition to setting the standard ourselves. Innovation isn't just a buzzword; it's the key to relevance and longevity in the marketplace.
Consider this: according to the Wild Newsletter, a staggering 52% of Fortune 500 companies have either faced bankruptcy, been acquired, or disappeared entirely due to stagnation. The cost of inaction is far too high.

2. Learn how to identify trends that shape your priorities and decisions.
3. Explore existing resources and strengths you can leverage for sustainable change.
You'll walk away with insights to tackle the pivotal question: How can our businesses not just keep pace but become the catalytic force, the disruptor, and the standard-setter, ensuring we remain relevant and drive our industry forward? Tune in and get ready to innovate!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
