Innovation Through Employee Engagement

“I think organizations would send a lot more teams out into the field if they understood just how many business opportunities or cost savings simple observations can bring.”

~ Tom Kelly, IDEO

Who are you networking with?“The old ways are dead. And you need people around you who concur. That means hanging out more with the creative people, the freaks, the real visionaries, than you’re already doing. Thinking more about what their needs are, and responding accordingly. It doesn’t matter what industry we’re talking about – architecture, advertising, petrochemicals – they’re around they’re easy enough to find if you make the effort, if you’ve got something worthwhile to offer in return. Avoid the dullards; avoid the folk who play it safe. They can’t help you anymore. Their stability model no longer offers that much stability. They are extinct; they are extinction.”
