Down To Business With Bobby Kerr | Newstalk Radio Ireland
The Shift from Customer-Obession To Ideas-Obession and Why Now?
I had the pleasure to speak with Bobby Kerr on his show ‘Down To Business’ on Newstalk Radio, Ireland.
First, Bobby did an amazing job of putting me through the paces on my book. (Bobby is also a founder of a coffee shop chain called, Insomnia Coffee, what a terrific brand name!)
In this engaging conversation, I share my thoughts on:
What is the thinking behind the shift from customer-obession to ideas-obsession and Why now?
In a lot of companies, if you come forward with an idea and fail, you could feel threatened, how can companies manage this better?
Can you give us some example of an idea that failed in a particular company but then goes on to become successful in another?
Is not human nature that by developing successful products, that most of the ideas going forward would be derivatives of that? - we become obessed by our own products & services to a point we can’t see outside of the arena
Isn’t it true, that when a company builds a reputation for quality, for developing good technology, theoritically atleast, they are best placed to come up with the next big idea, not an unknown disruptor?
