The Innovator´s DNA
-
Although innovative thinking may be innate to some, it can also be developed and strengthened through practice.
-
Innovative entrepreneurs have something called intelligence creative, which allows discovery but differs from other types of intelligence
Innovators engage both sides of the brain while
take advantage of the five discovery skills to create new ideas.
five “discovery skills” that distinguish the most creative executives: associating, questioning, observing, experimenting, and networking.
Together, these abilities form what we call the DNA of the
innovative
-
In most companies, top executives do no feel personally responsible for proposing strategic innovations
Innovative entrepreneurship is not a genetic predisposition, it is an active effort
innovative entrepreneurs go out of their way to meet people with different kinds of ideas and perspectives to broaden their own domains of knowledge
-
the ability to successfully connect seemingly unrelated questions, problems or ideas from different fields is central to the DNA of the innovator.
As innovators engage in these behaviors, they develop their ability to generate ideas that can be recombined in new ways.
Innovators constantly ask questions that challenge common wisdom, "question the unquestionable"
Taking the time and energy to find and test ideas through a network of diverse people gives innovators a radically different perspective.
Innovative entrepreneurs, on the other hand, are much more likely to challenge assumptions
Ironically, big questions actively impose limitations on our thinking and serve as a catalyst for out-of-the-box insights.
Unlike observers, who look intensely at the world, experimenters construct interactive experiences and try to elicit responses to see what insights emerge.
discovery produces unusual business ideas by analyzing common phenomena, particularly potential customer behavior
By understanding, affirming and modeling the DNA of the innovator, companies can find ways to more successfully develop the creative spark in everyone.
