How money kills creativity | Jens-Uwe Meyer | TEDxUniversityofNicosia

We all love money. We strive for wealth. Companies aim for growth and profit. But money is the worst thing that can happen to innovators. Money chokes or even kills creativity. Instead of thinking unconventionally, you manage budgets and create reports. Instead of looking for quick creative solutions, you negotiate with expensive agencies and consultants. Protect innovators from receiving too much money! Learn why bootstrapping should be your preferred innovation strategy. And how you can benefit from NOT having big budgets or million Dollar investments. Jens-Uwe began his career as a police commissioner in Germany before moving to the media sector. As a TV correspondent, he reported from more than 25 countries, including the Middle East and the USA. He later became director of programming for radio. After completing a PhD in economics, he went on to create his own digital company and, today, Jens-Uwe Meyer is considered a leading European thought-leader on digital disruption and innovation management. He has written 12 books and numerous articles on digital transformation. His most recent book is titled 'Digital Disruption: The Next Level of Innovation'.
