The best source of inspiration is something that is not working.

Q: How do you decide which idea to

implement/test/validate?

IMPLEMENTATION

STOP STARTINGSTART FINISHING

WHAT IS FAILURE

in INNOVATION?

WHAT IS SUCCESS?

Nobody did this before!

You will know if it works when it works.

There is no straight path to make it happen.

Innovation is change and change is scary!

what I learned so far about SUCCESS in INNOVATION

Success is there as long as I learn.

"It ain't over 'til it's over" - Yogi Berra

Having a functional team is a success.

MOTIVATION

WHY do you want to do this?

WHAT keeps you going?

DOConstantly explore ways of accelerating prototyping.

Most of the time just do the next action to get to a prototype.

Only sometimes think about the future and the strategy.

FOCUSRelease, don't optimise.

Isolate hypothesis and validate them independently.

DESIGN

is INNOVATION
