Episode #56: The Role of Innovation in Writing Your Book with Neil Kane

Today's conversation comes to us through our partnership with The Mentor Project, where Neil coaches/mentors entrepreneurs all over the world. Having been a founder more than a dozen times, our guest, Neil Kane, also teaches entrepreneurship at the undergraduate and MBA levels for a major university. As a result of all his experience, Neil has become a student of the "entrepreneurial mindset" — the traits and characteristics of successful entrepreneurs. In today's episode, we discuss the role of technology in our present economy and how much it influences how we think about an idea, start ventures, and eventually how and why some of those businesses become successful, and most don't.______________________________ GuestNeil KaneOn Linkedin 👉 https://www.linkedin.com/in/neilkane/On Twitter 👉 https://twitter.com/neildkaneOn Facebook 👉 https://www.facebook.com/neil.kane.581 ______________________________ ResourcesLearn more about the Mentor Project: https://www.mentorproject.org/ Blog: https://illinoispartners.com/blog/ LinkedIn Featured Media: https://www.linkedin.com/in/neilkane/detail/featured-list/urn:li:fsd_profile:ACoAAAAA9AYBimbW3dh0qjhOEO2iUznoKo2vzF4/ ______________________________  This Episode’s SponsorsBlue Lava 👉 https://itspm.ag/blue-lava-w2qs ______________________________ To see and hear more Redefining Technology stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:🎙✨ https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-technology To hear more from The Mentor Project Series, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/the-mentor-project-podcast Are you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/podcast-series-sponsorships
