What’s the key element often forgotten by leaders when driving innovation?
In the episode of the Creator Community, we meet innovation consultant and author Matt Mueller who shares his key principles for leading and driving change.
Broad acceptance of your idea both internally and externally is critical to making it happen.
Focusing on the root of the true problem rather than pushing your solution is just one of the key lessons of today’s episode and one of the most important things leaders can do to drive true innovation and change.
Key Points
- Slowing down and thinking through the “why” of a problem will ultimately save time and iteration on the back end
- Build a better foundation before you build a tower
- SEATbelt analogy: Stop and think about the real problem, find your Emotional connection to the problem, Acknowledge the problem is real, Tell others your plan to chage

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
