WHAT ABOUT THE OUTCOMES?
MEASURING WHAT?
MEASURING OUTCOMES
- QUALITY- QUANTITY- GROUP ENJOYMENT- GROUP PERCEIVED QUALITY
EXPERIMENTING WITH INNOVATION SCAFFOLDING SOUNDS AMAZING!
But I came for the hammer & the nails....
BUILD YOUR TOOLBOX
- From one tool to a toolbox- Built for speed- Counterintuitive often wins
ONE LAST THING...
WHY ARE BOOSTERS THIS SIZE?
PREVIOUS THINKING RESTRICTS FUTURE THINKING
ALL THE TIME
EVERYWHERE
PRESCRIPTIVE PROCESS IS NOT HELPING
WE RESTRICT THINKING TO WHAT IS INSTEAD OF WHAT CAN BE
Innovation “make changes in something established, especially by introducing new methods, ideas, or products.”
NOT LIMITED TO THE HORSES ASS
Break thinking“Breakthrough thinking requires you to break through something, and that something is your normal linear thinking pattern.”

3 THINGS TO-DO ON FRIDAY
FRIDAY MORNING TO-DO LIST
- Setup flexible innovation scaffolding- Experiment, since intuition is not proof- Block calendar for the award/royal visit
FINAL EXPERIMENT: COMMITMENT“HIGH FIVE COMMITMENT”- On my mark- Turn to a partner (3 is ok) and share
one thing you’ll do differently tomorrow
- I will count down (3,2,1) and we do a synchronized “high five of commitment”
