015: Creating Cultures for Innovation & Entrepreneurship with Brett Gilbert

Today my guest is Brett Gilbert, Regional Innovation Chair and Associate Professor at American University in Washington DC. Brett travels the world conducting research on the positive impact of entrepreneurship on creating wealth in communities and exposing the barriers that prevent entrepreneurs from thriving. In this episode Brett talks about how being a believer influences her work, how entrepreneurs can overcome personal barriers to starting and growing a business, and how one chance postcard in the mail helped her leave a unsatisfying career behind and find her God-given calling.
