Innovation: Transforming Ideas into Solutions
Innovation is vital to a company’s success and very survival. But sometimes, innovation is placed on the back burner while companies focus on optimizing current process and perfecting current products and services. Even when we know how important it is to be innovative, we can feel overwhelmed and unsure of where to start. Process is as important in innovation as it is in every other part of a company. The Innovation Process moves people through the steps necessary to turn vision into reality, and it can be applied anywhere innovation and improvement are needed. Having a defined process can also help us make proactive innovation a priority, so we are never scrambling to innovate reactively.
