Over-emphasis on efficiency and quick turnaround tends to produce standard, in-the-box ideas
A “can’t-afford-to-fail” constraint can produce unimaginative, short-term, even short-sighted solutions
Out-of-the-box thinking depends on a conducive, out-of-the-ordinary work environment
The health of the core is nurtured by innovative, out-of-the-box thinking
Truly disruptive thinking is about new audiences and new services
The value of the “disruptive 10%” is learning, which can be imported back into the core
Evolutionary thinking is about either new audiences or new services
Innovation should be about gathering as much learning as possible through the process of
launching an innovation.
Those involved in innovation should have nearly complete freedom to
create and develop and should have radical autonomy, right from the start
of their employment with the organization.
You are your own brand. Allow each person to build their own
paths of exploration and expertise in areas that interest them.
Leadership is a reflection, not a vision. Avoid directing and instead reflect.
You’re not an arrow; you’re a mirror.
Those active in disruptive innovation, the 10%, should be questioning what the organization is about to discover
what it is not.
