Personal innovation is important to keep us moving forward, reinventing oneself. It only requires that you think broadly about the unmet needs that can be observed in the current way products are utilised. If you can develop solutions that address those needs in a valuable way, then you would have developed an innovation. A specific example is a technology solution called Nuru, a lightweight mobile app that farmers can use to detect diseases in cassava plants using TensorFlow, an open source machine learning library. Personal innovation requires those positive factors to be further honed and developed in the year ahead.
