This is by far one of the best podcasts I’ve ever listened to. As a podcaster myself I find it incredibly refreshing, the scope and depth of top is, guests and perspectives that the show offers really helps you question what you think you know about leadership, innovation, career development and even personal growth and life-work balance. The questions and conversations are incredibly smart, deep and thought provoking. I have applied many of the principles the guests present in my own personal life and professional relationships, even with my partner! I freaking love this show.

So many amazing guests and Mark really pulls the best information out of them. This podcast is bingeworthy and actionable! I love it!

Innovation Ecosystem shares actionable insights on how to become a better leader (and innovating with purpose and values). I highly recommend listening and subscribing if you want the knowledge AND mindsets to become the best leader you can possibly be (and grow your business and live your best life as a result)!

I have found this podcast series by accident but I am very pleased that I have. The relevance, transferability and ideas are all so applicable and are well on point regards the future of work

Mark and his guests share actionable and inspiring lessons to become a better business leader and (more importantly) a better overall person. Highly recommend listening and subscribing to The Innovation Ecosystem if you want the knowledge AND mindsets to take your business to the next level (and reach your overall goals as a result)!

I've had the pleasure of meeting Mark. One-on-one as well as interviewing his world-class guests, he is driven beyond just bringing you interesting conversation to helping you connect with his guests and learn from them. He has big corporate teams and small entrepreneurial ones. He's innovated and he's worked with bureaucracies. That experience comes through in making his guests comfortable to share vulnerabilities and experiences we can learn from.

Mark Bidwell not only does his homework to get as much learning as possible from his guests, he himself is an expert innovator -- also loves the visual collteral that accompanies each episode.

I got interested in these because Mark interviewed me for one. I've since been listening to others and have come to really enjoy the broader back-story around innovation - not just what happened by why other entrepreneurs have developed a specific point of view.

What a great way to learn and grow! A very professional podcast series, highly recommended.

This is a well produced show with fresh perspectives on innovation and management and lots of practical suggestions of how to improve - well worth subscribing.

A really great Podcast that inspires, provokes thinking and generates actionable insight for enterpreneurs, intrapreneurs and people who are interested to disrupt the status quo. Mark is a phantastic host who invites thought leading guests. Excellent and easy to listen to. And furthermore, you get a good summary of the discussion as a drawing. Thanks Mark!

This podcast has embedded itself into my morning commute and has enriched my way of thinking. I often relisten to podcast episodes and find something new to think about each time. Keep up the good work! Sab (Sydney, Australia)

This is such an invaluable resource - the only thing I can think of that comes close to it that I've come across in the past 25 years is 'The Fifth Discipline Fieldbook'. Thank you Roddy and Mark. Can't wait for season two.

Good experience so far from a rare user of pod casts. Shorter, punchier sessions are the best. Those that have clear simple focus resonated best. Mark's interview style is refreshing

Truly inspring! Looking forward to every new episode. Keep going!

Great collection of stories about innovation, change, collaboration and working with uncertainty. Equally applicable to business and personal journeys.

The selection of all topics on innovation and entrepreneurship are highly interesting! So great to hear from so many experienced and talented people.

Great, engaging, listener-friendly opportunity to hear interesting perspectives from a diverse group of speakers.

Great discussions and insights.

Listened to the interview with Lisa Bodell. Fast paced, quite focused. Great material.

A very interesting new angle on innovation using guests from a wide range of different background with some surprising conclusions. Very good start. Keep it up.

Roddy and Mark skillfully guide and probe their guests in a manner that is much more effective than simply listening to the guests give a speech. The guests are top of the range and very much worth hearing. Links to the guests’ websites and other resources provide the material for a deeper dive. This stuff has gotten me thinking about the long term and I am really looking forward to future guests.

Great quote: "The larger your organisation, the smaller your world". Very thought-provoking, relevant and well-produced.

I am an innovation junie. I read it, I write it, I teach it, I research it. And I like to listen to people talk about it while I drive or go for a run. The thing that makes this podcast stand out over many others is the expertise of the interviewers, not just the interviewees. On some podcasts, the interviewer sounds like they are looking at innovation with that deer-in-the-headlights expression. The resulting interviews are superficial at best. Not so with the Innovation Ecosystem. The interviewers have lived, breathed, eaten, and slept innovation in their careers, so they are able to ask the perceptive questions that get the interviewee to go deeper on the topic. Outstanding program!

Well conceived and relevant. Innovation is much discussed yet little achieved. This could help

I really love this podcast. Mark and Roddy are easy to listen to, they are exceptionally smart, and most importantly they ask great questions. You can tell these guys have run large cap business by the way they interview their guests. That makes a big different for me. Fantastic Show!

Like Steve Goldstein’s riveting example of keeping one’s ‘eyes-wide-open’, Millar and Bidwell’s podcasts compel listeners to keep their ‘ears-wide-open’. They are engaging, informative, and entertaining – and I look forward to hearing many more podcasts in the future.

Awesome job!

I wish I had heard these before launching my new business. Looking forward to the next one.

Original insights by interesting interviewees, time passed much quicker than I thought at first glance.

A great collection of thought provoking individuals brought together by two sharp and entertaining hosts. The ideas are immediately applicable, both to my own development and for clients’ development. I highly recommend this insightful series. Elias Westerdahl - The Centre for Synchronous Leadership

I enjoyed listening to a real and natural conversation with Robert Walcott which explored a number of angles around the topic of innovation, networks and even self management. In our fast world what is the optimum length of a podcast? Personally from 30 to 45 minutes feels about right but I do understand that not all fruitful conversations will construct themselves in that way. Overall this is a very helpful initiative.

Engaging, well structured, great speakers. Really cutting edge. Worth listening to.

These insights are exactly what are needed by those who have a deep desire to transform themselves and their organizations. Keep providing us with deep insight that comes from the crucible of real experience.

Great interview, packed with interesting ideas and insights, while being practical and pleasant. I really liked the wrap up at the end, as well.

Thank you Mark and Roddy! The quality of the content and the interviews are remarkable. It inspires to challenge the status quo within "rigid" organizations. Congrats for this great launch!

Interesting guests, searching questions and high production quality = subscribed.

Great insights.

Pleased this conversation is on the go. Academic underpinnings. Cross-sectoral discussions. Exactly what's needed. Helpful as listeners attempt to think broadly and cut through the noise. Will continue to plug in.

Well produced, professional material.

Very good indeed, have listened to 3 interviews so far. Insightful questions and useful summaries of main focus points at the end. Keep up the good work!

Very insightful and inspiring!

There are so many poor business books and podcasts that I’m usually terribly disappointed having invested my time reading or listening to them. These Innovation Ecosystem podcasts are very good indeed. The guests are all excellent, insightful and different to the usual suspects. Subjects are great and the whole thing is put together well. Refreshingly good.

Excellent quality guests and enjoyable delivery. Essential for innovation officers and anyone looking to innovate

Excellent listen. While the target audience is intrapreneurs and innovation agents, many of the concepts and ideas discussed can benefit anyone interested in examining his/her life and moving forward and upward.

Good point in making the difference between someone managing risk the right way vs the professional sceptics. Looking at potential positives first and overcoming concernes instead of simply ripping appart all ideas that come up is something that should be written in stone in all meeting rooms 🙂

These podcasts combine great speakers and engaging, relevant topics. Keep up the good work!

Only a few episodes in, but appreciating the range of perspectives & guests.

Thought provoking and insightful. Helpful and forward thinking

Great podcast - high quality and wonderful moderation.

Innovation Ecosystem is a totally enriching podcast. Lisa Bodell's interview impressed me so much, I spoke to my boss and we killed a stupid rule together! I'm really looking forward to reading her new book. I guarantee that if you listen, you will be inspired!

Mark and Roddy are two awesome hosts and they seem to have assembled an extraordinary cast of guests. This podcast is great for intrapreneurs, students of intrapreneurship as well as anybody interested in business generally.

Definitely worth subscribing to!

High calibre guests and well presented

Wisdom from the front-line, in an easy style. A must-listen survival guide for entre/intra/extrapreneurs.

Most informative, thought provoking and inspiring. looking forward to the next instalment

Easy listening, and very insightful

Wow! Mark has amazing guests with insights that make you really think. For example Who Are You vs Who Are You Becoming? The content here is gold! Look forward to hearing more as this is what people need to grow.

Really great podcast, would also recommend to business students !

Useful and interesting cast, particularly appreciated the diversity of backgrounds and perpsectives on innovation.

Some neat ideas presented by interesting people with much to share about innovation.

Some great early guests giving their perspectives on an important subject…well done guys

Mark and Roddy have launched these podcasts with some remarkable guests, and their conversations dig into their experiences and tips for success. Keep it going!

Much looking forward to more of this series of interviews and discussions. Taking time out to learn from others experiences seems to be a key to succeed in any fast changing business environment.

Very simple, innovative and useful tool !!!!

Mark and Roderick are putting together a unique podcast selection for entrepreneurs or those who want to know more about that Ecosystem. Great initiative!

A glimpse into the minds and experience of people who innovate for a living. Very valuable.

Listened to first three episodes back to back. The guests offer useful insights for entrepreneurs as a result of focused and relevant questions. Great start and looking forward to the rest.

Having been privy to some of the initial episodes, I’ve come away extremely impressed. Mark and Roddy have put together a stellar line-up of business thought leaders and this is a must-listen for leaders, who are looking for unique ways to innovate within their corporate environments. Looking forward to these episodes!
