Video Program: Free Radicals of Innovation (DVD)

Anyone can learn to innovate. Free Radicals shows you how. Using this collection of nine video programs, you will learn how to use creativity and innovation to find solutions for challenges within organizations, families, and communities.

Most people appreciate innovation’s benefits, but few actively pursue it because of a fear of failure. Why? Because people are afraid of change. However, danger and failure can act as a catalyst for innovation—spawning adventure, exploration, and fun! In fact, laughter is often the sound of innovation being born.

In Free Radicals of Innovation, you will become more comfortable with risk and learn tools and techniques to create new solutions.
