Doing what has not been done? Doing what has been done better?
That’s the question.
I think that innovation is developing new ideas out of feelings, obligations or necessities and executing them with positive or sometimes unfortunate outcomes. It is essential for an innovation to complete its 360-degree cycle in order to evaluate its quality and outcome. The concept’s top-level popularity propels either very positive or very negative results. It needs to provide the entrepreneur, institution or society with a positive return either in material or moral terms. Otherwise, it may result in wasted time, labor and monetary loss.
What I find crucial for entrepreneurs and companies is innovation-oriented and people-centered approach that aids the increase of design thinking skills.
What does that mean? It is the evolution of product, service, process and strategy development methods through approaches based on empathizing with needs and customers, generating creative ideas and creating swift prototypes.
In this exciting journey from idea to solution, you should encourage yourself and your teammates at your institution to think creatively, collaboratively and motivate everyone to work together.
“Innovation comes from people meeting up in the hallways or calling each other at 10:30 at night with a new idea, or because they realized something that shoots holes in how we’ve been thinking about a problem. It’s ad hoc meetings of six people called by someone who thinks he has figured out the coolest new thing ever and who wants to know what other people think of his idea.”
