Big ideas don’t drive innovation — curiosity does. And you know how important I believe curiosity is 😁! In my new Work from the Inside Out episode, I spoke with Doug Hall, author, inventor, and founder of Eureka Ranch and Brain Brew Distillery — about how staying curious and fixing systems (not people) leads to more joyful, meaningful work. Doug’s story illustrates how fulfillment emerges from looking inward to reflect, learn, and grow. And when we pause and pay attention to those reflections, we gain clarity on how to move forward. Here are a few insights from our conversation: * Curiosity fuels innovation and reinvention. * Fix systems, not people. Most problems are process-based. * Small wins create big engagement. * Keep asking if you’re growing. Doug asks himself, "Am I smarter than I was six months ago?" * Meaningful work fuels joy, not just busyness. If you’re looking to reignite curiosity and purpose in your work, this episode is a must-listen. 🎧 Tune in here: https://lnkd.in/ezrdHmAz #WorkFromTheInsideOut #CareerGrowth #Innovation #SystemsThinking #Curiosity
