In most of the roles I’ve held over the past 15 years a key outcome was to create a growth business. It didn’t matter whether the effort was a start-up, creating a new product, an acquisition, or a partnership. One of the hardest things to do in those roles was to take an idea and translate that idea into a fully formed business that made peoples’ lives better.
The work we’re doing at Posit Science has brought this to the forefront again. The scientific breakthrough of harnessing the power of the brain to improve performance is clear. This is the invention. Invention- the word invent comes from the Latin word inventus, in plus ventus, meaning to come upon or to encounter. I think of an invention as a discovery or an idea that we dream up.
