Abstract

Leadership Untangled is a podcast series established by Dr. Austin Council for the classes he teaches at Virginia Tech. The podcast series explores different topics related to leadership, social change as they intersect with college student life. In this episode I interview Dr. Curt Friedel, Associate Professor in the Agricultural, Leadership, and Community Education Department and Director of the Center for Cooperative Problem Solving at Virginia Tech about the KAI, otherwise known as Kirton Adaption-Innovation Theory. We discuss how the KAI Inventory can help us better understand our problem solving style and how that can have a profound effect on leadership!
