Intelligence is learning from our own mistakes. Wisdom is learning from the mistakes of others.
At Future Trends 2009 I spoke about infusing outside experts to solve problems you are working on right now.
At Maddock Douglas, we call upon our Global Expert Network (GEN) to help create solutions to complex problems. GEN is an exclusive group of thinkers that includes entrepreneurs, professionals and specialists that span the globe and hand picked to meet specific opportunities and challenges. These experts often come from a parallel industry or have a specialized skill that relates to the challenge at hand. This cross-section of thinking creates relevant, and frequently groundbreaking, ideas. Do you have a GEN? And if not, how do you plan to infuse outside expertise into your next big challenge?
