Today’s Audio MASTERCLASS: Supercharge Your Growth by Building a Co-Creative Culture

[1:25] – Chris shares something that he believes about becoming successful that most people disagree with.

• The future is not self-made, its shared.

[1:50] –  Chris talks about unlocking creativity to power growth.

• It starts from within. We always talk about changing the world but its really changing the world from within which starts from going to our core and being brave.

• The key is to be brave together . Work harder, work smarter but work creatively together with others.

[3:34] – Chris talks about what’s the best way for us to lead the future.

• We are living in the most unprecedented times where th e quality of living is the highest its ever been. The upside of AI technology is immense and the opportunities are endless. If you are leading a team or a company the key to this future is working for a way to build out a band and strengthen it. It is building an alliance not an empire, it is co-collaboration.
• The future is to be co-workers and to be co-creators. If your team is like this , you will be able to build the best brands.

[5:51] – Chris talks about the best way to achieve massive long term growth.

• First way is to embrace change by having a mindset that is not resisting a new technology like AI.
• Think co-creatively with technology and with others because you will be the one to power this technology.
• Think about perpetual motion. Culture is the perpetual motion machine that creates continuous growth. It’s the people with the brain thrust that builds incredible things together.

• Build a culture that last.

[17:36] – Chris talks about supercharging culture with co-creation.

• There are 3 building blocks of culture. First is shared wisdom that is leading with questions that lead to shared wisdom. Second is deep empathy which is the power of compassion. Third is being powered by principles of humility, purpose and integrity.

[21:18] – Chris talks about how Apple did it with Air pods.

• Creating that technology that is wireless is a big deal. They hired rockstars / PHDs to do the impossible and each part of the team has a voice and commitment which is transformative.
