SUMMARY:Unconsciously Comfortable: The Hidden Killers of Innovation
DESCRIPTION:7775 Walton Pkwy\, Suite 100\nNew Albany\, OH 43054\nWednesday 7/29/26\, 11:00 am – 1:00 pm\nBe ready to interact with our featured speaker\, John Popelka\, and your fellow participants. \nEat. Mingle. Make new friends.\nInnovation is often the difference between growth and grind. Most of us know that. \nBut when customers need answers\, payroll is coming due\, costs are rising\, and the business has to keep moving\, innovation gets pushed to tomorrow. Then tomorrow again. \nIn this TIGER Talk\, John Popelka will explore how we naturally protect the patterns\, assumptions\, and routines that keep growth stuck. John will help us learn how to reclaim space for innovation with one action you can test immediately. \n*************** \nJohn Popelka\, has spent much of his life in places where good ideas had to survive contact with reality – from Fortune 500 conference rooms to Army bases in Afghanistan\, Honduras\, and\, yes\, even Toledo. \nHe’s led innovation work inside a major corporation\, navigated strategy\, risk\, and operations across complex organizations\, and served 20 years in the Army as a combat engineer. \nToday\, John is the founder of From Ashes\, a coaching and consulting practice that helps individuals and leaders break past old limits\, make bold choices\, and lead with purpose. \nThrough his work\, John challenges people to stop protecting what keeps them stuck – and start choosing what creates growth\, possibility\, and a better world. \n**************** \nLike all TIGER Events\, this talk is FREE.\n11:00 am – Coffee\, Snacks\, & Socializing \n11:15 am – Lunch & More Socializing \n11:45 am – Introduce yourself to our crowd (10 seconds please) \n12:05 pm – Hand-off to John \n1:00 pm – Wrap & Resume Socializing \n\n\n                \n                        Name*\n                            \n                            \n                                                    First\n                                                    \n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                            Last\n                                                            \n                                                        \n                            \n                        Email*\n                            \n                        Company*Consent to Use My Image & Voice*By registering for & participating in this event\, I am consenting to the recording of my image and/or voice.
