There needs to be a fundamental shift in how we manage innovation, which needs the power of ecosystem thinking and design. Not only in thinking and design but in how we structure its architecture, one based on platforms, open apps, and a marketplace where like-minded people and organizations go and participate in building new impactful innovation solutions together.

The problem isn’t how we dismantle hierarchies, but how we connect them. For decades we’ve been hearing that we need to eliminate bureaucracy and break down silos.

In fact, when management guru Gary Hamel, who has been leading the call to “bust bureaucracy,” surveyed readers at Harvard Business Review he found that levels of organization had increased, not decreased.

Big ideas are powerful because they encapsulate an essential truth. When Fukuyama wrote about “the end of history,” it really did mark a turning point in human affairs, just as Marshall McLuhan’s concept of a “global village” identified a shift in communications, Kuhn’s model of a paradigm shift helped us understand how scientific breakthroughs occur and Christensen’s ideas about disruptive innovation alerted us to dangers and opportunities we weren’t aware of.

Can you know the truth? What if someone else’s truth is different from yours? Who is right or wrong? It might seem like a simple question, but humans are inherently bad at putting themselves in the perspective of other people. One of the cognitive biases which drives this is something called naïve realism. According to research, naïve realism shows that people believe that they see the world around us objectively, and that people who disagree with them must be uninformed, irrational, or bi

I'd like to write today about what I call sneaky innovation. I define sneaky innovation as the innovation work that is often started and completed in disparate locations in the business, is not strategic and is often completed without a lot of fanfare. Sneaky innovation is about doing small but impactful innovation, without asking for permission or waiting to see who will approve.

Just how likely are you to succeed? And how unlikely is it that something bad happens to you, just because it happened to someone else? Surprisingly, most people appear to think that in the future, it is more likely that good things will happen to them, and less likely that bad things would happen to them. This is a cognitive bias known as the optimism bias.

Often, and authority figure placing higher expectations on someone, like a teacher having high expectations for a student, or a manager having high expectations for an employee, can result in both the authority figure and the person in question changing their behaviour, perception of challenge and ultimately the success of their efforts.
