Ideation

“There are lots of great ideas, and if you take

one of them and evaluate it without looking at

the other ideas […] it may not be a great

idea. All you have to do is make that one

connection. This guy has one part, this gal has

the other part, let’s get these two in touch and

let them have a chance to recraft it with the

combined ideas and then we’ll evaluate it [...]

it’s making the initial connection”Service Innovation Team Manager [13]

Motivation

“It has more to do with the emotional connection that you make and feel passionate about something and just want it for your company. I think that is more encouragement than any reward.”

Service Innovation Team Manager [13]

“...people have ideas and they want to do something new that will revolutionize something and they have a sense of ownership. You can’t underestimate the power of that ownership connection.”

Head of Grassroots Innovation [11]
