Innovators are a lot like ALIENS!

Innovation cannot really be managed

But you can manage the ‘Innovation Space’ i.e. Create an enabling environment

Innovation vs ‘Status Quo’

‘Think outside the BOX’

But what BOX is this???

Social ConventionEducational Conditioning‘Growing up’Status QuoSocial Conditioning

Out of the box thinking is hard because (sadly) life experience has a way of teaching you the opposite…

‘Status Quo’ = the current mess we are in

‘Status Quo’ = Convention, What is Commonly Accepted

But… not necessarily the best solution e.g.

Prison Break!

Like body building… it’s painfulNo pain, No gain!

Unlearn before you learnNot so easy! How long have u been learning?

Question thingsThere are absolutes but not all we consider absolutes are such

The GREAT out-of-box thinking test…

Limits? What Limits?

Boundaries? What Boundaries?

Conventional“hmm, WHY?”

Unconventional, New, Innovative“hmm, WHY NOT?”

ORSo, Which are you!?
