Most people will have heard the basic mantra of brainstorming: there is no such thing as a bad idea. With this premise in mind, people are encouraged to share any idea without fear of ridicule or judgement. While some concepts may not be achievable, these so-called ‘bad ideas’ can often be necessary stepping stones to good ones. The post How bad ideas can lead to good ideas appeared first on Exago.

Driving True Innovation Within Your Organization Means You Must Outline Your Goals and Priorities Clearly. In January 1996, two Stanford PhD students started working on a research project that would change the world. They nicknamed their project BackRub, because it checked backlinks of websites to determine their importance. Today, that project has become known as Google and its two founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, have completely changed the way the world works.

The latest research says “co-creation” is an untapped opportunity for innovation. Here’s how to do it. When I ran the internal strategy consulting group at HP, we constantly asked ourselves, “how can we get our $40 billion global behemoth operating more like a startup?” That’s because like most big companies, we struggled with risk-taking and moving fast.

If you aren’t aware of what’s going on around you as a business leader, you may risk being left behind by your competitors. Even worse, your business may end up being disrupted by the next big innovation that comes on the market.

In my strategy programs, one of the most common questions that come up is the nature of goals. People often ask this question in different ways. What is the difference between goals and vision? Some wonder how a mission is distinct from a vision? After all, you design your strategy to achieve your goals and your mission. Knowing the difference often helps you clarify and reflect on your goals.

Getting the most out of meetings is easy if you know how to effectively design them. One of the biggest black holes in workplace productivity is the poorly designed, poorly run meeting. No wonder 71 percent of senior managers view their companies’ meetings as unproductive and inefficient. When meetings aren’t effective, the natural instinct is to schedule yet another meeting to make up for it.

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.
