The burning question many businesses should be asking is, "Can our business survive and thrive the rapid advance of technology?" Terry Jones, the founder of Travelocity.com and founding chairman of Kayak.com, joins the show, Innovating Leadership: Co-creating Our Future, to discuss with Maureen how existing corporations can change and adapt to new products, as sometimes it's forgotten how to discover new things. His advice: "You better take a risk; if you don't, you'll be gone."
The pace of change in the world is increasing exponentially and shows no signs of slowing down. Leadership is evolving, and organizations require more and more innovative leaders to keep up. Many leaders update what they lead but not how they think about and act as leaders. They become outdated, and their stakeholders pay the price. This podcast focuses on helping leaders update their leadership skills.
