Those who don't set goals in life end up being controlled by those who do.

Implementing best practice is copying yesterday innovation is inventing tomorrow.

Innovation means replacing the best practices of today with those of tomorrow.

Today's president, CEO or managing director needs to be a disruptive influence with imagination, vision, and courage to lead the organization into new and dangerous territory. The leader must be an entrepreneurial driver who can inspire the team to boldly venture into uncharted lands.

The innovator's motto is this: I succeed or I learn but I never fail.

The innovative leader has to be an arsonist and a firefighter.
