Via Itamar Medeiros Brian Solis explores the need for human-centered experiences and aims to help executives shift mindsets toward the future.

Chase Jarvis – BRIAN SOLIS: IT’S NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO BE GOOD ENOUGH
Today on the podcast,
How to take inspiration from brands, people and products that are outside your industry– for example, as Brian says Starbucks isn’t looking to other coffee companies for inspiration
