I was reading Steve Rubel’s blog over the weekend. He always seems to have some great posts that really makes me think. He hit the nail on the head today. Curiosity as the most important career skill you can have.

“So as I thought about it, the most important “tool” you can have today in business is insatiable curiosity. The minute you lose it, you’re dead.” - Steve Rubel

An interesting statement. Is curiosity the most important thing you can have in business today ? I agree. I don’t think you can be an entrepreneur or an innovator if you aren’t curious. Looking at it from inside ConceptShare if we weren’t curious, ConceptShare would never have come to fruition. We would have never asked if there was a better way to do it. We would have taken everything at face value and resigned ourselves to the fact that there was no better way to share visuals. But we asked the question …what if?

I look at all sorts of people who have created great things. They have all challenged the status quo and gotten curious.
So become more like a kindergarten student. Ask questions. How do they do that? Is there a better way? Why do we do it this way ? Why?
You might be interested to find when you start to be curious. Maybe there are things that are being done right in front of you that could be improved. Have a read of the article and see what you think. Are you curious?

Curiously yours,

Scott
