I've argued that leaders need to become more proactive problem finders if they wish to avert surprising failures in their organization. They need to seek out and uncover hidden risks. Unfortunately, as humans, we struggle with regard to how we cope with risk. Three patterns of behavior prove particularly problematic when it comes to risk. 1. We actively downplay and discount ambiguous risks.

I've been writing about innovation for close to 20 years. During most of that time, I've had the good fortune to lead innovation projects for clients as well. The work I get to do, and the material I see online and read in (yes, I still read paper magazines) has provided a lot of fodder for this blog over the years. There are kids out there, getting ready to graduate from college, who were just being born when I started doing innovation work.

If there is one thing that we can count on, it is that things will change. Especially in the last two years, how and where we work has changed, and the workforce itself is decidedly different. Organizations are facing new changes every day, and it is essential for leaders to exploit the advantages that these changes can give. But how can leaders make change appealing to their team members , especially after constant change has been thrust upon us over the past two years?

Usually, there are some apparent needs that people attack immediately. Still, once those are addressed, it can be challenging to recognize the flaws in processes, especially ones you operate every day.
