There are so many places where innovation is essential within the Energy Transition, due to the magnitude, size, and complexity of the change needed to achieve a decarbonized world. There is a world of innovating possibilities. One of the most important catalysts for changing the energy system into a sustainable green one is by taking our thinking beyond the known into the possibilities we need for a sustaining future, of energy based on the ability for renewables to generate all our electrifica

If you ever had the feeling that products don’t last as long as they used to, you might be right. It turns out that in order to keep consumers buying products year after year, some companies are actually deliberately reducing the quality of their products. In some especially nefarious situations, these companies may be updating their products through software even after you bought them, in order to make the performance worse.

The use of chance is a key element in lateral thinking. How can you deliberately introduce chance into your creative thinking? The Random Word method is very good. Here is another brainstorm method for you to try – Roll the Dice. It works well with groups of 4 to 6 people and is excellent for forcing unusual combinations of ideas and settings.

Overview: Sustainability approaches and innovation strategy go hand-in-hand, yet too often are seen as separate targets. The two need to be reconciled, especially as hitting necessary sustainability targets will be key to future business. Brands need to reframe the narrative, find value in sustainability, incorporate it into larger operational goals, make it part of the upgrade and repair cycle, and create a circular innovation process to constantly build on successes.

With all due respect to Jack Nicholson, who said this line in A Few Good Men, and to Aaron Sorkin, who wrote the words, most companies cannot handle the truth about the wants and needs that their customers have, because the truth is inconvenient at best, and often ignored at worst. It is far easier to assume you know what customers want, and further to assume that they want what you have already.

There is a wonderful saying in the martial art of Jiu-Jitsu: There is no losing in Jiu-Jitsu. You win or you learn. This quote comes from one of the pioneers of Brazillian Jiu-Jitsu, Carlos Gracie Sr. What I love about it is how succinctly it demonstrates the value in learning from trying new things. When it comes to innovation and developing creativity, it is a necessity to try things which could not work out.

Have you ever been driving along a dark road at night, and been thankful for the guardrails that line the roadside? Of course, if the road is relatively flat and straight, guard rails are not very important, except to keep you out of the oncoming lane. But consider a high mountain pass, with rock facings on one side and a relatively sheer drop just off the other side.

Start-ups & SMBs launching products quickly must bundle dashboards, reports, & self-service analytics into apps. Customers expect rapid value from your product (time-to-value), data security, and access to advanced capabilities. Traditional Business Intelligence (BI) tools can provide valuable data analysis capabilities, but they have a barrier to entry that can stop small and midsize businesses from capitalizing on them.
