Innovation vs. Best Practice
The document discusses the difference between innovation and best practices. It defines innovation as introducing something new to solve problems, while best practices represent short-term solutions. The author provides seven "laws of innovation" including that innovation must solve problems, not create them, and that true innovation requires research to understand problems. Innovation is planned while invention can be accidental. The document advocates combining technologies to create new syntheses and addressing real problems through a research-driven process.
Taking Charge (2nd ed.), Chapter 5.1
Critical thinking involves making carefully considered decisions by weighing logic, consequences, and tradeoffs. It requires problem solving through root cause analysis, evaluating information, effective communication, and making informed decisions. The process includes analyzing, evaluating, reflecting on, interpreting, and inferring information to make judgments and take action. With the large amount of information people receive daily, critical thinking is important for drawing sound conclusions by analyzing arguments and positions logically. It can help people save money, choose wisely and avoid negative outcomes.
Innovation vs. Best Practice
This document discusses the differences between innovation and best practices. It argues that innovation builds long-term success by solving problems, while best practices only provide short-term solutions. The document outlines six laws of innovation, including that innovation is always planned while invention may be accidental, and that intuitive solutions do not need instructions. It encourages focusing innovation on solving user problems through user-centered design.

Innovation vs. Best Practice – Conflict or Opportunity?
“Best practice” implies doing things in the best possible manner, based on past experience. But we like to think of ourselves as innovators in a dynamic industry – we want to go where no one has gone before. Thus, “best practice” and “innovation” are like oil and water – they don’t easily mix.
How can we, as UX professionals, balance the need for consistency that “best practice” provides, with our on-going mission to improve the quality of our products? How can we create genuine improvements – and when have we been seduced by the evil twins, Fad and Fashion?
“Innovation vs. Best Practice” explores the elements that make up these two ends of the UX spectrum. We’ll take a closer look at the popular definitions of both innovation and best practice – and discover why these are frequently inadequate, misleading, or both. Why is a “standard” not always a “best practice”? And if “invention” can be spontaneous, why is “innovation” always planned?
We’ll also examine some of the worst reasons to innovate, which are also some of the most common, plus the Japanese concept of “chindogu” – “useless innovation.” Perhaps most important of all, we’ll see how User Driven Design helps us avoid harmful innovation in comparison to the more common User Centered Design methodology.
Innovation at Israel Mobile Monetization Summit
Everyone talks about innovation. But what is it? Everyone is developing apps. But will they gain traction in the marketplace? We all want to monetize our creations, but is there a recipe for success?
Perhaps there is. And I presented a new model for evaluating our work at the Mobile Monetization Summit in Tel Aviv in December 2013

Disruptive Innovation in the Digital Era
This document summarizes a presentation on disruptive innovation in the digital era. It discusses how the world is constantly changing due to digital technologies like mobile, social media, cloud computing and real-time data. True innovation requires disruptive thinking that changes existing business models rather than just making incremental improvements. To survive, companies must embrace disruption by integrating digital technologies into their products, services and business models in ways that create new value for customers. The presentation provides tips for organizations to adopt this kind of disruptive mindset including investing in learning and testing new ideas, developing a sense of urgency, breaking down silos, and getting everyone involved in digital transformation.

Examples are given of startups that pivoted by changing their product, customer segment, or other aspects, which ultimately led to their success. The document emphasizes building, testing, learning from failures or lack of traction, and quickly pivoting as needed.

Right to property & playing C.I.O to millennials
This document discusses how corporations work to sustain their fame even when it does not directly impact sales. It explains that corporations create exclusiveness, use innovative strategies, focus on large audiences, understand customers, and leverage loyalty to build goodwill, learn what customers want, and add brand value. The document also discusses how Chief Information Officers must work with Millennials, who are tech savvy, quick learners who think differently. It notes CIOs must anticipate changes, embrace new technologies, and focus on communication, monitoring, and improvement to effectively engage and retain Millennial employees.
Ikea - A case study in stimulating innovation and change
IKEA is used as a case study of a company that successfully stimulates innovation and change. IKEA communicates its innovation strategy widely and partners everyone in developing the strategy. Some innovations IKEA has implemented include popup advertising, moving showrooms, and storage balconies. In contrast, Kodak failed to inject innovations into its products and lost market share as a result. The document outlines six ways companies can stimulate innovation, such as being open to new ideas, uncovering change champions, and allowing occasional failures by taking risks. Barriers to innovation include inadequate funding, closed-mindedness, and inflexible processes.
Open Innovation
Open innovation uses both internal and external resources and collaborative business systems to solve problems. Traditionally, innovation came from internal R&D, but open innovation spreads costs and risks. It allows companies to find people to solve problems they don't know about. Major companies like Nokia, P&G, and IBM now use open innovation approaches, crowdsourcing ideas and partnering with startups and universities. While it risks losing competitive advantages and secrets, open innovation can lead to new growth by accessing ideas outside a company's walls.
Competing with an API giant, lessons learned: OpenCage vs. Google
This document summarizes a presentation given by Ed Freyfogle of OpenCage on competing with large API providers like Google Maps. Some key points:
1) OpenCage has found success by focusing on geocoding as its sole offering and doing it well, rather than trying to replicate all of Google Maps' features.
2) It identifies weaknesses in competitors like expensive pricing and lack of privacy controls to carve out its own niche in the market.
3) The presentation argues for a stable, predictable API that just works, rather than trying to "beat" competitors, and stresses the importance of understanding customers' needs over flashy technology.
The missing feature - simplicity
This document compares different types of mapping services, noting that some are open and free or affordable with good terms of use, while others are closed with bad terms and expensive. It lists specific mapping services like Geonames that are open and more affordable compared to the closed and painful to use Addok mapping service.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying Them
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
