Topic: How to be an Independent Thinker in a Conventional World
It can be hard work to be a trailblazer; challenging the prevailing wisdom, refusing to stay the course, and pushing others to deviate from the ordinary. Sometimes, especially in talent development/people strategy roles, we're merely told to study someone else's "best practices," replicate them, and voila - innovation! But disruption requires incrementally and consistently doing things different every day and exploring novel ideas from a variety of perspectives. Independent thinkers believe in what they do, take risks and proudly wear the badge of outlier as they create something new and unexpected that has an impact and changes something for the better.
