Eric Boycott is an international business expert, and the Co-Owner of Canadian Building Technologies Ltd., which is a technology company focused on improving building performance by offering materials and wall systems that are sustainable, durable, energy efficient, healthy, and non-combustable. Originality is overrated. Most ideas are borrowed, stolen or modified from other places and reapplied to create new streams of value. If you are only focused on your immediate area or industry, it’s easy to start thinking like everyone else. When you think like everyone else, your opportunity for progress is limited. In this episode, Eric will help you connect the dots between different cultures and industries to help you build a bridge to your next big idea.   Please reach out if you have any feedback or questions.
