Thinking Outside the Box for Innovation
In the early 1900s, a fast food restaurant owner optimized every aspect of his business until he couldn't improve further. By visiting different places outside his industry, he discovered the drive-through concept at a bank and implemented it in his business, leading to the creation of the first drive-through. This innovative idea eventually led to the sale of his company to a major franchise. The story highlights the importance of exploring new perspectives and ideas beyond one's immediate surroundings.
