How AI Will Transform Us Into Innovators: Mo Gawdat (E275)
This episode is part of our ‘Experts In Their Field’ mini-series, presented by Salesforce. In this episode, we welcome Mo Gawdat, former Chief Business Officer for Google X, tech entrepreneur, and author of the best-selling books "Solve for Happy" and "Scary Smart” back to High Performance. Mo sits down with Damian to discuss innovation, a topic he is deeply passionate about and a leading voice in. Together, they explore how we innovate, how we can define a concept as elusive as innovation, and the common obstacles that hinder productivity and creativity. Mo shares his insights on the ever-changing goalposts that make us dismiss the present and forget how far we’ve come. He delves into the difference between creativity and innovation, explaining how creating something entirely new differs from improving existing ideas. Mo also emphasises the importance of a collaborative environment and aligned mission to foster innovation. He shares tips on overcoming the fear of failure, managing organisational resources, and addressing the lack of urgency that often stifles innovation. This episode was made possible by Salesforce, who value innovation as one of their core-values. With their AI platform Einstein 1, you can combine various AI-powered tools and features under one umbrella to help businesses automate tasks, gain insights, and enhance customer interactions.
