Innovate, Disrupt, or Die | How to Differentiate Big vs. Little "I" Innovation

What does innovation look like when it actually changes how work gets done? In this episode, Danny Nathan sits down with Dan Keldsen to talk about human-centric automation, adaptive learning, and why too many companies still rely on people to patch broken workflows. They get into what it takes to build a real culture of innovation, how to create space for experimentation, and why the best leaders give teams both permission and structure to test new ideas. Dan also shares how mature technology can unlock new value in new markets, why small improvements matter more than most teams think, and how AI should support better decisions instead of replacing human judgment. This conversation is packed with practical insight for founders, operators, consultants, and innovation leaders trying to build smarter systems without losing the human side of the work.
