"The book is Rebooting Technology: How to Ignite Innovation and Build Organizations Where Everyone Can Thrive. And there's 6 Cs. It's built on this framework of 6 Cs, which is creativity, an innovative culture that is truly creative. Finding the courage to take risks. Building a culture of confidence where people speak their mind and speak their ideas. Embracing curiosity, so always figuring out new ideas. Learning to communicate because without communicating your ideas, you're not going to be able to create change. And then ultimately, community, because community is how we nurture ourselves in order to move forward"- Telle Whitney.
