I appreciated the opportunity to collaborate with Mike Davis, EVP of Broadnet, on innovation strategy. “Samuel is a very dedicated, intelligent, and hardworking professional. The innovation strategy and ideation he provided to Broadnet was well thought-out and provided a framework and momentum to execute the necessary tactics needed for a comprehensive strategy. Broadnet was trying to determine how AI should be used for business development. Samuel was assigned to help in this matter. Samuel did independent research to learn more about Broadnet and its product line, and then provided many highly developed ideas for Broadnet to use. It was very…
In all of human history, the current era stands out for radical innovation. The ongoing AI era is poised to quickly change the world on a more radical level through innovation than what has been done in any previous era.Reflecting on past breakthroughs like the original iPhone, which addressed issues unbeknownst to users, it becomes apparent that such innovations merely scratch the surface of what’s coming. The future holds the promise of even more groundbreaking advancements that will redefine everything in the years ahead.If you wanted to be a part of the radical innovations that happened in prior tech booms,…
SamSauer.org/Idea is my dedicated page promoting myself as an ideation specialist (AKA innovation strategist) for ambiguous problems. It is the main online resource for that purpose. Here’s a post on why my title on that page is more narrow.
Today, I changed my title to Radical Innovation Strategist For Ambiguous Problems (from Ideation Specialist For Ambiguous Problems) in my Ideation Specialist page. I made that change to niche into the ideation/innovation category I most excel at and to use more professional (but still accurate) language.It would be easier to promote myself for another (equally valuable) category of innovation, but radical innovation is unfortunately the category of innovation I most excel at based on my skill set and my track record of published radical innovations starting from 2020 or before.That change results in me having a very niched market because…
This post might be outdated and has been replaced with my EOS Visionary page. Please refer to that page at SamSauer.org/EOS-Visionary. I am an EOS Visionary who is looking for an EOS Visionary who is overwhelmed, an EOS Integrator, or a company replacing their current EOS Visionary. I would act as a full-time or part-time/fractional EOS Visionary.Let’s break down what I’d do for each of those. If you’re an EOS Visionary Most EOS companies only have one Visionary who sits at the top, ignoring Visionaries who operate as a subordinate. As offerings multiply, a product/service line may merit its own…
“The Visionary [who focuses on ideation for ambiguous problems] and the Integrator [who focuses on execution] couldn’t be more different in terms of how they think and problem-solve. However, when their individual Unique Ability is correctly matched together and they are working toward the same business goals, the results can be exciting.”(Source: EOS Worldwide blog, eosworldwide.com/blog/visionaries-and-integrators-are-essential-part-one)Recently finished Traction by @Gino Wickman. EOS is a business operating system that drives fast, high-quality growth and nurtures the right ideas.While many modern millionaires dismiss ideation as fluff, EOS (arguably the world’s most reputable business OS) recognizes its value and how talent in ideation…
I’m highly considering gaining a skill set as an AI usage expert and/or an AI agent usage expert, and using that skill set along with my skill set for ideation for ambiguous problems. I would focus on providing a strategy on how my client (who could be my employer, an individual, a company, a non-profit, or a government entity) should use existing AI services and/or AI agent services and/or build an AI/AI agent to more effectively tackle their ambiguous problems for greater ROI.I would focus on providing ideation in the same way I would as an ideation specialist for ambiguous…
Why are most of the world’s richest people not from ultra‑rich families?Because in the long-term, growth rate beats everything.What distinguishes those who consistently achieve a higher growth rate?Execution is critical, but millions execute well. That’s not it.It’s the ideas, the solutions to the ambiguous problems.Think about it.Thousands of capable entrepreneurs had already launched internet businesses when Jeff Bezos was just getting started with Amazon.Amazon’s long-term vision was to become the store for everything, and to start with books: a brilliant answer to the ambiguous problem of pairing a bold vision with a feasible first model.While other talented executors went broke…
A great business executive doesn’t have to be an accountant; as long as someone is acting as the accountant.A great business executive doesn’t have to be a visionary; as long as someone is acting as the visionary.Steve Jobs (the visionary of Apple in its beginning) happened to have much more business acumen than Steve Wozniak (the executor of Apple in its beginning).But, if Wozniak had that business acumen instead of Jobs, then Apple could have been just as successful with Wozniak as the head executive as long as he had the self-awareness to recognize that he needs Jobs for the…
Most people don’t know how to solve ambiguous problems. They don’t even know how to think about them. 💭That’s why they stay stuck.But what if you had a language designed for problem-solving itself?Enter Omnilow – An algorithmic language built to break complexity and ambiguity down and make AI work the way we actually need it to.Let me show you what that means.🚀 The Challenge:AI struggles to interpret human intent. You ask it one thing, it gives you something almost right—but not quite.Why?Because we force AI to understand problems in our limited way, instead of communicating in a language optimized for…
