I recently read a couple of excellent articles by Nick Skillicorn , and Prof. Rita McGrath where both discuss the challenges and intricacies involved in structuring and governing innovation within a large organization. This is a classic topic that every corporate innovator has without a doubt come across, and it’s also one where “the right approach” is often quite elusive.

Many companies I work with have an Annual Plan and some foundational strategic elements, like Core Values, Core Purpose and Mission/Vision/ BHAG ( Big Hairy Audacious Goal. ). However, these companies often don’t take time to define goals on the 3 year time horizon. This is an important step, because these 3 year strategic plans form your base camps on the way to achieving your longer-term strategy.

2024 has tested every organization, and 2025 promises no less - the warning signs are everywhere. If you’re relying on superficial approaches to diversity, you might find yourself scrambling to catch up. Thought diversity - the fuel for new ideas, fresh perspectives, and disruptive innovation - is more than a buzzword. It's a survival strategy. And if you’re not building it into your workplace culture right now , you’re heading for trouble.

In my last blog, I talked about how most meetings suck. Now, I want to focus our energy on ways that we can fix them and have effective meetings. One of the biggest complaints that I hear about bad meetings is the lack of an agenda or getting it two minutes prior to the meeting. While having a meeting without an agenda is horrifying, I have attended several bad meetings that had a detailed agenda sent well ahead of time!

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.

Complex workflows rarely involve just one tool. In today’s distributed work environment, teams switch between 10 apps 25 times per day to stay connected. However, tool overload leads to too much context switching, which fragments communication and reduces efficiency. Integrations play a key role in making workflows more productive. According to the IDC 2021 Annual Collaboration Survey, companies that save 20-40 hours per week per person use an average of 4.2 integrations.

The series of waves that the pandemic began have rippled through the Great Resignation, quiet quitting, the Great Regret, and other eloquent phrases that boil down to the same thing: people aren’t engaged at work or enabled to perform at their best.
