I'm actually more interested in the 90+% of ideas that never make it to product development. Failure - the good, the bad and the ugly Let's first admit that some failure is necessary. This is the bad side of failure. Why is there so much failure in the front end of innovation? As much as any can be, these are good failures.

I had the opportunity to speak to a leadership team that is considering building an innovation capability in their business. The answer that I think most leadership teams want is: good ideas. After all, it's easier to explain away the lack of innovation if you can say that most teams lack good ideas.

When to go slow Finally, no matter how fast you want to go with innovation, no matter how much you are willing to train the team or build the process, you should ALWAYS go slow at the beginning of an innovation activity. Your team or project is exceptionally likely to fail. You cannot speed up what does not exist.

Organizations have been plagued in the last two years by major shifts that have disrupted business and threatened their profitability.

After a decade of reading about it, getting pounded over the head with the Jobs/Apple story and watching new innovations disrupt entire industries, businesses are starting to react.

There's an innovation analogy today Currently, many innovation teams are shaping up a lot like Henry Ford's company. And you can have any innovation you like, incremental or disruptive, as long as it results in a tangible product. Where would those ideas "go" for further development?
