Innovate on Purpose: Innovators are unreasonable networkers

John Stuart Mill believed that progress comes from interaction and communication between people with different modes of thought and experience. Today, social media provides endless opportunities for exchanging ideas, but we still fall into narrow discussions and confirmatory bias. Innovators resist the status quo and seek new insight, expanding their knowledge networks and crossing different industries and technologies. This resistance is necessary for finding new and better ways to create products and services.
