About: Scott Hirsch is a founder of Management Innovation Group, a strategy consulting firm that helps clients understand where to play and how to win in a world of rapidly changing markets, technologies, business models, and management practices. Not your typical MBA, Scott has devoted his consulting career to facilitating teams to bridge their cognitive and behavioral gaps and create a common vision for the future. These include the common gaps between team members with executive and line responsibilities, between the business and design competencies, between those with analytic and creative skill sets, and between corporate and disruptive world views. He has brought this collaborative approach to innovation projects with executive clients in a variety of industries, including Nokia, British Telecom, Reed Elsevier, Rodale, Network Appliance, and PlanetOut.
