It is always fun to think about… write about and talk about INNOVATION! In my mind INNOVATION no matter its application, target or purpose… always provides a special spark of creative energy that has “staying power.”

Well this month in my Inspiring Innovations LEARNING MOMENT podcast, I have tried to explain and in words demonstrate how and why: INNOVATION is “Easier” Today! In every sector, smaller spin-off ideas of INNOVATION have made a great impact in all areas of our life and work. The end result is that innovativity (I hope that’s a real word) has become more common and “Easier” than ever before.

I hope this month’s podcast motivates everyone to “exercise” their INNOVATION muscles and offer more unique options to benefit us all.

Enjoy the listen.

This month’s Inspiring Innovations LEARNING MOMENTS Podcast was easy to put together and fun to share! A great friend reminded me that Being Somebody’s HERO!… “just requires a little common sense and doing what’s right.”

In the podcast I try to stress that EVERYONE at some point in time has the opportunity to be a HERO. Fortunately I was even able to share a cool line-up of recent local event HERO examples to make clear how often easy and appropriate it can be.

Take your time to listen and consider the “TIMELESS” value the content of this podcast can have.

Enjoy the listen and consider Being Somebody’s HERO today!

Dr. Adolf Brown has been a long time professional colleague and has motivated people all over the country. We were lucky enough to have him speak to a group in the Thumb Area of Michigan quite a while ago… but I was thrilled to receive a “reconnect” message from him just last week!

Well, his reconnect generated this week’s Inspiring Innovations LEARNING MOMENTS discussion. Specifically the topic is a review of Dr. Brown’s 14 fabulous: CHAMPIONSHIP HABITS. 

I refer to them as historic “soft-skills” in the world of work… but truly they are the hardest skills to practice and perfect!

Enjoy the listen and thanks Dr. Brown one more time.

Making good First Impressions is a pretty regular, strong professional development priority both at home and/or in the work place! Whether the issue is dress… being on time for anything… or communicating well… all are areas that require quality First Impressions every time and everywhere.

This month’s Inspiring Innovations LEARNING MOMENTS Podcast not only stresses the progressive value of making strong First Impressions… but also stresses their timeless and priceless value to everyone as a professional. Taking the necessary time to take stock of one’s First Impressions value in every life setting… is truly time well invested.

Enjoy the listen.

One of the most important roles of a leader of any organization or business is simply: Meeting MAXIMIZATION!

Discussing the most important issues… getting and keeping everyone engaged… considering the best location and providing GREAT leadership guidance… are all continuous factors that need to be addressed to ensure: Meeting MAXIMIZATION!

This month’s Inspiring Innovations LEARNING MOMENTS Podcast discussion is all about my four (4) top recommendations for achieving the best results every time you conduct a meeting. They are all reflective of my experience as a leader in multiple situations and have helped me organize every meeting that I have been responsible for to be labeled SUCCESSFUL! 

Enjoy the listen. 

As you check out the title of this month’s Inspiring Innovations LEARNING MOMENTS Podcast: Vault of VOIDS!… I will bet you have never seen those two unique words used “connectively” before! Right?

Well this month I try to place necessary attention on the extra-curricular quality-driven services/product VOIDS that are not stressed nor given timely attention in the workplace and/or by employees. So as a result… these VOIDS tend to find their way into unimportant vaults that take away their opportunity to be recognized as SPECIAL!

It is hard to explain the Podcast’s goal in this short intro… but the discussed examples hopefully bring home a special LEARNING MOMENT.

Enjoy the listen.

Often people in charge talk strongly about encouraging people to think more creatively and cause new idea generation. However, most employing units don’t take example-setting steps to “show” this commitment and move toward Creating A MAKERSPACE!

This month’s Inspiring Innovations LEARNING MOMENTS podcast is all about the purpose and potential value of Creating A MAKERSPACE within your home and workplace. The podcast discussion tries to explain the what/where/why/when and how questions in relation to MAKERSPACE development. But the bottom line is that Creating A MAKERSPACE can be a steady solid return-on-investment action.

Enjoy the listen.

It is with a feeling of qualified satisfaction that I share this final podcast for the year 2025. Working With People is a simple sounding topic… but as we all know, in real life, it contains a large list of leadership challenges. Are some challenges fun to take on… Yes! But do we mostly deal with the more complex personal side… also Yes! 

Well my Working With People podcast tries to offer five simple but specific “words of advice” in this topic area. Will they help… yes… but the five are just a beginning. 

Enjoy the listen and the holiday season. 

It is always extra special to prepare the November 15th Inspiring Innovations, Inc. Learning Moments Podcast! Whether it’s because of my hunting blind recording location or just remembering some of my Dad‘s traditions, the messages I prioritize just seem a little more personally important.

“Positioning” Through Innovation & Entrepreneurship is a professional activity that will make a positive difference no matter your employment responsibilities. Scheduling time to consider: Customers Then – Customers Now, Communication (2 Elephants in the Room), Partnering In & Across Boundaries, Creating An Idea Mill, Building Non-Traditional Products/Services and using PROFESSIONAL DISCOMFORT via Continuous Improvement… are all priority “Positioning” categories to consider!

Have a fun listen and we will discuss more next month.
