EP9: Innovator Blueprint: The Disruptor Innovation Currency

    • Entrepreneurship

We’re back with another Innovator Blueprint episode where we explore one of the four distinct styles that help you discover your hidden innovator potential.

Today, we focus on the distributor innovator style. We will explore the disruptor style’s ability to reimagine systems and understand the most complex ideas and concepts. Join me as we unpack the critical role disruptors play in reshaping perspectives, removing structural barriers, and accelerating change in the very foundations of society. Drawing from real-life examples and personal reflections, I also reveal how disruptor’s superpowers manifest in challenging the most entrenched social, political, economic and cultural systems. 

From their ability to help us shift how we see and experience the world, to leveraging technology as a secret weapon, disruptors are at the forefront of creating new ways of being and doing. So tune in and learn how to tap into the power of the Disruptor as we explore this Innovator style!

“When I think about disruptors, I often think about a toy that I used to have as a kid called a ‘kaleidoscope’. I don't necessarily know if they're around too much these days, but you would look in the viewfinder, and as soon as you would turn the dial, what you saw would change automatically.” — Leigh-Ann Buchanan 

“Disruptor's secret weapon, in my opinion, is technology. Why? Because technology is an exponential force multiplier that inherently operates at scale.” — Leigh-Ann Buchanan
