What does it mean to be an innovator to you?<\/h2>

I believe innovators have the conviction and courage to be the black sheep of their industry. Hearing someone say, \u201cWell that\u2019s just the way we\u2019ve always done it\u201d makes their skin crawl. Innovators aren\u2019t scared of face plants and messing up when doing something that\u2019s never been done and they see \u201cplaying it safe\u201d as a dangerous game.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
