Becoming an amazing innovator is a long journey. You face endless challenges, especially when you want to change a 'big old elephant’, your challenge gets exponentially more difficult.
Many ambitious innovators are looking for "the holy grail'. Unfortunately, becoming a successful engineer you can't learn at university.

That's why he likes to share with you ten practical guidelines for your path as innovator leading you to the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
In essence it's very simple. Organisations consists of people. So, when you have innovative people, you have an innovative organisation. That's why his ten guidelines focus on people, like you. Now, you can point to others in your organisation claiming they are not willing to change. But when you point at them, take a look at your hand. Three of your five fingers point to yourself, reminding you that the change starts with you.
Your take-away from Gijs’ lecture are ten practical guidelines helping you to become an amazing innovator, leading others to let the old elephant dance again.
