If you convinced someone at a cocktail party they should enter an incentive challenge, what would you say?
If you love problem solving, consider submitting to online innovation challenges. If you are patient and don’t give up too early, the satisfaction that comes from winning an award is great because it’s global in scope and is so egalitarian. The reviewers have zero information on you or your background, so who you know or what degrees or other accomplishments you do or don’t have is irrelevant. The quality of the content in your submission is everything.
