INNOVATION IS FUN

BULLSHIT

INNOVATION HURTS

The premise of Innovation Parkour is the assertion that we can learn to innovate

that we can get better at innovating by practicing it

What is innovation?

@skap5 Saul says: innovation creates a better way to deliver value.

3 MYTHS

Innovation is expensive

Innovation takes a long time

Innovation can only be done by special kinds of people

INSIGHT

What is Parkour?

DISCIPLINE

NO OBSTACLES

USE OBSTACLES

‘There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. A man must constantly exceed his level.’ Bruce Lee

INNOVATIONPARKOUR

A PEDAGOGY FOR VOLITILITY

INNOVATIONPARKOUR IS SOCIAL SOFTWARE

YOU ARE THE CODE

Man is born free, but everywhere he is in chains

Routinized work produces efﬁcient and predictable outcomes

What happens when things become unpredictable?

How likely is it that people will not panic in such circumstances?

How did this happen?

Why didn’t Sully panic?

“The training provides pilots with important technical skills -- they can practice ﬂying crippled planes -- but it also teaches them something more important: how to draw on an optimal blend of reason and emotion. They learn how to ignore their fear when fear isn't useful and how to make quick, complicated decisions in the most fraught situations.”

“Flight crews don't panic because they've practiced staying calm.”

“He who handles the quickest rate of change survives”

I thought Cybernetics was freezing dead people... with apologies to Paul Pangaro

Is innovation a conversation with constraints?

Parkour is not about running & climbing. PA U Parkour is about navigating uncertainty in real-time.

How do we get there?

How do we innovate?

LADDER OF SKILLS

Unconscious Incompetence Conscious Incompetence Conscious Competence Unconscious Competence

What lies beyond Unconscious Competence?

MASTERY

PROPOSITION: Innovation favors the prepared mind

The prepared mind allows us to navigate uncertainty

Tennis drills are repetitive and relentless. They teach the body to think, so the mind can do strategy.

There is nothing secret about yoga. The poses are well established across many styles. But it is a bottomless practice

Each of these practices is about the synthesis of ﬂow & repertoire

A KINO- COGNITIVE MODEL

ﬂow+ repertoire= innovationinsight

Innovation is cheap

Innovation can be done quickly

Innovation can only be done by anyone

But we must practice

How do you practice innovation?
