When you look at the landscape of what’s available when it comes to innovation, this is the only program that looks at the people and says people are the true path to innovation—and here is how to identify and leverage the strengths of those within your organization so you truly have an innovative culture. The Academy is helping us identify the areas we can bring maximum value to our customers.

I have this fire inside of me surrounding innovation. I’ve thought a lot about projects we’ve deployed where we didn’t follow these steps [outlined in the Academy] and the missed opportunities because of that. I enjoy being able to leverage everyone’s strengths and lean into them. I’m going to do that a lot more across the organization. To get us there, it’s really going to take all of us.

Nakedia WashingtonAttendee

We have been excited about the strides we’ve made identifying waste in the organization because it has an immediate impact on the bottom line. The massive amount of quantifiable waste we have found has been eye-opening and jaw-dropping.

Tyler AndrewAttendee

I love that there’s a process and an outline to something that can be as nebulous as innovation. For someone like me who loves process and details and timelines and workflows, when you put me in an innovation or ideation session my brain kind of short circuits. So, having a foundation like [the Innovator's Advantage Academy] helps me get through it. And know that when you get stuck, you can go back and restart the process if you need to because there’s a purpose behind each step.

Johnna CaruthersAttendee

I’m an innovator! Those who know me, if you look at my [Innovation Fitness™] scores I’m not very flexible about going outside of my comfort zone. This Academy has been impactful in opening my mind and my eyes. We have a problem to solve and we can solve it. I love to be able to look around the room and say, you know what, I don’t have to solve that problem alone.

Jill RodriguezAttendee

Understanding how to ideate was eye-opening for us. Using the methods taught by Evans and the team, we are expanding one idea exponentially. We’re realizing good ideas can become better ideas. I firmly believe we are on the path to integrating innovation into our culture.
