International speaker: Dr Iwan Jenkins: the Kirton Adaption-Innovation Inventory

We're excited to announce a special guest speaker, Dr Iwan Jenkins, joining us from Toronto. At Map Camp 2020 we were introduced to the KAI (Kirton Adaption-Innovation) Inventory and how it is relevant to mapping and the Pioneer Settler Town-planner (PST) pattern in a talk by Marcus Guest: https://youtu.be/L13HXbDMZrg https://leadingedgeforum.com/media/mdbkz4yv/guest-kai-wtf.pdf

In this talk Dr Iwan will cover:

Background

• No single person can solve every problem.
• We form to solve problems we can’t solve by ourselves
• To survive, make more customers and and keep existing customers longer, we need pioneers, settlers and town planners.
• These 3 groups irritate each other yet their successful collaboration is essential

During this session we’ll answer

• Why are these groups essential?
• Why do they irritate each other?
• What can we do to reduce irritation and improve collaboration?
• Who am I most naturally—Pioneer, Settler, Town Planner?
