Invisible Solutions

In this week's episode, I am joined by my guest Dan Kaus. Together we tackle the problem: "How can we find time for innovation?" Dan has innovation experience with a wide range of companies and industries, including Accenture, BP, Campbell's Soup, and many others.

Dan shared some of this thoughts on this, including:

Try to integrate innovation into daily work rather than keeping is separate
Simplify innovation so there is less confusion
Ensure implementation of high-value ideas

We also explored how using the Invisible Solutions lenses can provide some new insights into this problem. In particular, we used:

1: LEVERAGE - What is the part of the innovation process that will have the greater impact? Where is there currently the biggest bottleneck?
2: DECONSTRUCT - What are the steps of the innovation process and where should we focus?
3: REDUCE - How can we simply the innovation process by reducing steps, ambiguity, or ideas to implement?
7: RESULT - Why do we care about innovation? What's the ultimate goal?
12: REASSIGN - How can we leverage outside resources to help us make innovation a reality?

It was a fascinating conversation that I know you will find valuable!
