#35 - A Unique Journey of Design Thinking & Innovation /w Vaughan Broderick

Welcome to The Nomad Solopreneur Show!

I'm your host, Gabe Marusca, joining you on your solopreneurship journey as you build, grow, and learn.

Today we have with us Vaughan Broderick, who sold his business, backpacked 23 countries, got an MBA, and then launched into the world of design thinking and innovation.

He aims to inspire people like you to think differently about life and business.

Vaughan shared today with us the DUCTRI design thinking model created by Dr. Christian Walsh.

A model that considers the resources and implementation phases critical to innovation.
