No surprise, there is a payoff, but only if the necessary level of behavioral detail is built into the model. Find out why this is so important.

But ultimately all those Google hits end up telling us is this: we've mastered nothing. Innovation still eludes us and we go back to the well time and time again to answer the question: "How can we be more innovative?" So now what?
