Tendayi Viki is a corporate innovation expert who helps companies innovate for the future while managing their core business. He is an associate partner at Strategyzer. And he is author of a new book called Pirates in the Navy: How Innovators Lead Transformation. There are so many takeaways for this conversation. Here are just a few. 

* You must decide: Do I want to be a pirate in the navy? Self-awareness is key

* Escape innovation theater

* The product of innovation is the process not the product

* It’s not innovation unless it creates a new business model and repeatable value creation

* The question is not, can you do it? The question is, can you do it again (and faster and/or better)? 

Just so you know…I have decided. I am an intrepreneur, and I have decided to be a pirate in the navy.
