SUMMARY:The Innovation Delusion: Has our obsession with the new disrupted the work that matters most
LOCATION:Online
DESCRIPTION:Businesses, governments, non-profits, and individuals are all hunting for the next big thing. Consultants, thought-leaders, and management gurus promise to help us reach the innovation promised-land. But is all of this chatter getting us what we want? It took a pandemic to realize how much our society depends on its maintainers. \n\nBased on the book, The Innovation Delusion, co-author and technology historian Lee Vinsel will explore how our way of thinking about and pursuing innovation has made us poorer, less safe, and - ironically - less innovative. As an alternative, Vinsel will outline the Maintenance Mindset, a more grounded and realistic picture of our lives with technology. He offers a clear plan for shifting our focus away from the pursuit of growth at all costs and back toward neglected activities like maintenance, care, and upkeep.
