Why Is Change Important For Innovation Success? S12 Ep7

The ability of any organization to have innovation success is defined by its willingness and ability to do things differently. To change. Lets not fool ourselves - change is hard and makes everyone unconformable.

In this weeks show, we discuss the role of change, fear and failure on innovation success. We cover such topics as:

  • Why is change so hard (personal and professional)?
  • What triggers the fear of change?
  • What role does communication play to overcome distrust of change?
  • Why is support of failure critical to a culture of innovation?
  • What is the difference between "slow stupid failure" and "fast intelligent failure"?
  • How do you overcome our personal innovation antibodies that causes us to judge ideas?
