Accidents will happen – and as far as innovation is concerned, that’s a good thing. Whilst much of our attention is on the focused efforts to bring new ideas to market or to effect process changes in systematic, planned and strategically targeted fashion, there are some times when Fate takes a hand. What might appear to be a failed experiment or a strange but ultimately useless outcome can sometimes turn out to be the basis of a game-changing innovation.

Although every organization faces unique challenges, we see the same excuses repeatedly why established enterprises can’t do “real” innovation. Here are the top 5 to be aware of and some ideas on how to overcome them. 1. “It’s not my job.” Go ask some of your co-workers who they think is responsible for innovation.

While some see the technology as a catalyst for good, imbued with the ability to change society for the better and positively navigable in regards to its implementation, others fear the threat of technological unemployment will render human beings obsolete.

I read a lot and on diverse topics. I used to share all the interesting stuff on Twitter and Facebook, but realised that searching for them at a later point (in case someone wants to find out more or I want to connect with someone) became extremely difficult. Also, my friends said that it is easier for them if they can find all the interesting stuff that i find in one place so that they can visit one single post and decide to read something that they find interesting as well.

Rapid prototyping can make the difference between creating a successful product or ending up in an endless tunnel of dreams. Creating a prototype will force you to think about the details of your product and how users will use it in the end. A ready to use prototype will allow you to use it and show it to people and get their valuable feedback.

Personnaly, I believed conventional (ancient, not management theory or gurus) wisdom largely favors the stick. On the other side, theory also warns us that both carrot and stick may be closer related to hygiene factors. So, when deciding between two second-class incentives, it just depends.

I guess you are right. Old school was always stick. And you are absolutely right that it depends on the situation and person. For some things I am a carrot person (work) but for other I am a stick person (health). Personal motivation factors are key. Thanks!!

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

Columbia Business School Professor Rita McGrath asks an interesting question on her blog this week.

One thing is for sure: Anytime there is disruption, there is resistance. That is what we talk a lot about in my book ProVoke. I remember when I had my RFID Company (ConnecTerra Inc. in Cambridge, MA) and demonstrators were outside the doors because they thought RFID invaded their privacy (which of course it does […].
