These discussions between a business owner, a leading researcher, and a serial entrepreneur addressing a real-world business challenge are part of what makes Creative Distillation stand out. Then, after sharing a few closing thoughts, the hosts begin the process of distilling research.

Autonomy, methodology and 鈥渟tart-up鈥� studios

In episode 24 hosts York and Werner offer their take on how entrepreneurs and academics can benefit from the study titled听 "" that was authored by Viktoria Boss (TUHH Institute of Entrepreneurship), Linus Dahlander (ESMT Berlin), Christoph Ihl (Hamburg University of Technology) and Rajshri Jayaraman (University of Toronto).

The core issue being studied is what is better for entrepreneurs: 1) autonomy over teams 2) autonomy over ideas or 3) autonomy over both. The question is important because educators, accelerators, and investors all exert some influence on these questions.

The results may surprise you (they surprised Brad). The conversation weighs the dangers of overconfidence and echo chambers against the benefits of creating a company culture that questions every decision they make, the unique efficacy of "startup studios", and how knowledge plus passion equate to a higher likelihood of success.

Takeaways and insights

Episode 24 of the Creative Distillation Research Podcast offers listeners the opportunity to take a closer look at research through relaxed discussion of quality research. York shared that 鈥淢ake no mistake, this is a well-executed study, very interesting and a very creative way to take the entrepreneurship classroom and do something unique and valuable.鈥� And Werner underscored the importance of avoiding groupthink and focus on attracting diverse groups around the idea.

In a closing thought York offered 鈥淎nd if you're trying to get more creativity in your business, make sure you give people at least the autonomy of the team they work with, better yet, give them autonomy about the ideas they're going to work with, but don't necessarily give them both because they're all just going to look at each other and say, we got a great idea.鈥�
