The Breakthrough Leader

Doug Hardesty, COO at MycoWorks, shares where leaders can consistently source the best ideas for their teams and companies.

You'll hear the story behind his strong track record of success and innovation, leading a biotech company that is growing an incredible new category of materials from mycelium–the root structure of MUSHROOMS!

Leadership can be isolating and you may find your main source ideas coming from the WSJ, NYT, or needing to be “packaged nicely” in a PowerPoint...

...but this turns out to be very limiting overtime and can actually stunt innovation.

Just wait until you hear Doug’s strategy to drive innovation in collaboration with his employees.

Its truly effective and transformative and can be applied to ANY company!

MycoWorks is the first biomaterials company to scale up commercially in the alternative textile sector. Their factory, in Union South Carolina, is capable of growing millions of square feet of material per year, through the company’s ingenious Fine Mycelium.

As COO, Doug led the development of MycoWorks Fine Mycelium technology from an

artistic technique into a commercial-scale operation.
