“Business Challenges & Innovation“, presentation to Taylored Network on 9 March 2010.
Most of the discussion was about innovation. See slide 6, where you can calculate your innovation score against the five main factors:
- Question ask a lot more questions
- Observe watch how customers experience a product
- Experiment take apart a product or service to see how it works
- Network connect with others to find and test ideas
- Associate connecting ideas generated by all four above
What would your target score be and what would be the impact if you did reach that target?
