This week co-host Mark Edgar connect with Kayla Campbell from Canadian Tire who is writing a book called "The Curiosity Advantage" scheduled for release in all 2026. Kayla explains that curiosity is an innate trait that everyone possesses but often loses with age. She shares practical ways to enhance curiosity:

  1. Curious observation - becoming more aware of surroundings
  2. Question storming - brainstorming questions rather than answers
  3. Internal curiosity - asking questions about oneself for greater self-awareness

In the episode they discuss how curiosity is essential for organizational success, especially with AI adoption, and how it connects to continuous improvement, innovation, and customer understanding.
