Chris’s Innovation Philosophy

Innovation is Entrepreneurship

It’s not a 9-5 job. It takes passion, perseverance, urgency, and bold, customer-driven execution.

Innovation is a 360° effort

Fostering a culture of innovation is important, but it must be paired with a clear innovation strategy. True impact requires committed leadership and strategic alignment from the C-suite.

Innovation is about Results

No innovation theater, no vanity projects. Just meaningful impact and measurable ROI.
