\\u201cThink outside the box\\u201d is a famous adage. Yet many of us\\u2014as we advance in our education and begin to specialize in our careers\\u2014begin thinking more within the boxes defined by our areas of expertise. While our specialties are important and necessary, they can often create blind spots. It turns out that the majority of the problems faced by large organizations are solved by people outside of the organization. Companies are engaging talent from the gig economy and crowdsourcing platforms to partner with internal experts and tackle issues.
HeroX, a spin-off of XPRIZE, is the world\\u2019s largest problem-solver community and number one crowdsourcing platform. They empower everyday people to create, compete, share, and work with some of the world\\u2019s largest companies to solve some of the hardest problems.
HeroX Co-founder and CEO Christian Cotichini is a four-time founder with more than 20 years of experience leading startups and high-growth technology companies. He joins Paul to discuss remote work, the (literally) out-of-this-world problems that HeroX is helping to address, the future of work, and the innovative opportunities Christian believes crowdsourcing allows organizations.
