On the other hand, business professionals today must shape fitting mindsets and have the right dose of risk appetite to prepare for such a paradigm shift and accept that influence is attainable, but control is not.

People can create their vision that will retro influence them in the present, then, they are really doing something innovatively. It's about opening themselves, leveraging intuition to take “fast thinking” scenarios and switch on creativity purposefully. So innovation competency can be built via vision-influence enablement, breakthrough innovation can be developed via vision-innovation game changing.
