#LawFest2019

"Innovation"
►If you can't define it►If you can't agree what it is
The problem
► you won't innovate effectively.

1. Why innovate?
If things didn’t change, then your company could keep on doing what it’s always done, and there would be no need for innovation. If markets were stable, if customers were predictable, if competitors didn’t come up with new products and services, and if technology stayed constant, then we could all just keep going as we did yesterday.But all the evidence shows that change is racing at you faster and faster, which means many new types of vulnerabilities. Technology advances relentlessly, altering the rules of business in all the markets that it touches, which is of course every market. Markets are not stable, customers are completely fickle, and competitors are aggressively targeting your share of the pie. So please ask yourself, “Are we managing with the realities of change in mind? And are we handling uncertainty?”
Langdon Morris, The Innovation Masterplan

The why of innovation is brutally simple: change is accelerating.

needs?

3. How can I develop my creativity?
List all of the relevant steps for the product or service, and then:
• question the necessity for each step; and

#LawFest2019
A. Question assumptions

3. How can I develop my creativity?
Try and solve something truly impossible to develop your creativity.
It will engage the creative side of your brain.
Then think about the "real life" problem you are trying to solve.
