Ideas Dressed Up wtih Nowhere To Go

Ideas Dressed Up wtih Nowhere To Go

Business Innovation

Innovation is the process that follows creative thought.  Although I love to teach creative thinking in the workplace, I am continually faced with the proverbial issue: Ideas are all dressed up with nowhere to go.

In our Friday Business of the Week Awards and our Innovative Business Leaders articles, we will continue to offer stories, examples, problem solving, inspiration and frank talk about the need for and process to enable creative thought and innovative strategies.

Without further ado, I yield the rest of this post to a great 5 min. video about the need for innovation.  It is made and features the circumstances in Australia, but wherever you live, if you are in the English speaking world, all you need to do is change the name.  The issues and urgent need remains the same.

Tell me what you think below in the comments.  Ask questions.  State problems.  Join the dialogue.  If you know of a company, small or large, that has used creative thought and it resulted in innovative products, services, processes, etc… DO contact me.  I am profiling and writing their stories.

So now - enjoy the show. Send your business friends here to catch a look, and stay in touch!

Special thanks to Tim Morris of Dynamic Horizons for the video and lots of great information and services around innovation.

To our success,

Harmony

The statistics on the returns of innovation during uncertain times rings true. As Shakespeare said in "Julius Caesar",
"There is a tide in the affairs of men
Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;
Omitted, all the voyage of their life
Is bound in shallows and in miseries.
On such a full sea are we now afloat;
And we must take the current when it serves,
Or lose our ventures."

The nature of mankind and its affairs hasn't changed since we began recording history, if not for much longer. We don't need to be told things near as much as we just need to be reminded.
