Will you still be doing the same thing, in the same way, six months from now?
Same meetings. Same conversations. Same patterns of thinking.
Albert Szent-Györgyi, the Nobel Prize-winning biochemist who discovered vitamin C, once said:
“Discovery exists when you look at the same thing as everyone else and think something different. That isn’t easy.”
Quoting this, author Diane Hamilton points out that Albert loved the scene in Dead Poets Society when Robin Williams climbed onto his desk and told his students:
“I stand upon my desk to remind myself that we must constantly look at things in a different way.”
That’s what the Commercial Curiosity programme is all about.
Helping teams climb onto their desks, so to speak - to see the patterns, possibilities and opportunities others miss.
Not just for the joy of exploration.
But for stronger relationships. Better opportunities. Smarter decisions.
So, what about your team?
Are they stuck in a rut… or ready to climb onto the desk?
