The Global Innovation Study Team (GIST) has emerged from months of QuickPlace collaboration with a 6-minute PowerPoint presentation titled “Why Innovation?”
The presentation includes summaries from several recent studies on innovation, as well as an assortment of quotes and reasons why innovation is critical.
Why "Why Innovation?" It's easy to gather articles on the importance of innovation -- they are multiplying like mushrooms after a thunderstorm. What's perhaps harder to find is examples within your own company of management support for innovation. There is more innovation “talk” than “walk.” Hopefully "Why Innovation?" wlll be a useful tool to help you garner support for innovation within your organization.
Please feel free to use "Why Innovation?" within your organizations or community groups. And share it. The Global Innovation Study Team only asks that you share the presentation within your network and not place it on the web for public download. So, if you'd like a copy, email Gwen Ishmael, gishmae -at- decisionanalyst.com.
