When businesses allow themselves to reshape the rules they play by and explore new horizons, the possibilities of business innovation are endless. Too often, companies fall into a pattern of sameness, and problems become stale as they cycle through the same old systems of thinking. In this episode, host Dennis Wisco welcomes world-class innovator Erez Tsalik onto the show for Wisco Weekly’s first-ever live-audience recording to discuss top problems that businesses are facing today, potential avenues towards lasting solutions, and ways to reimagine business model innovations as a critical investment.
