It's almost inevitable that innovation will grow to become an amorphous blob of ideas, techniques, processes, "experts", software and a host of other things.

How do you produce plastic into the millions of products produced daily? By squeezing them into the right shape in a process called Plastic Injection Molding.

What happens when employees experience feelings of fear, uncertainty, and anxiety about the future direction of the organization? What if they are not clear about the plans for the future amidst some challenging financial circumstances?
