Innovation is certainly a complex and dynamic process that involves many factors and actors and I certainly feel it has been shifting in its focus. I decided to ask GPT-4 what major shifts have occurred in how we approached innovation ten years ago and today. It was suggested that these were the following.

The approach we take to embedding innovation in all its forms is a unique one that we call the Pathway Curve Methodology. Innovation needs to be worked at, to grow into a deeper understanding, over time. Innovation building faces a multitude of obstacles to overcome so innovation has a chance to be embedded within an organization.

This is why getting real momentum behind significant innovation is difficult. He or she must sell the need for innovation. Everyone is very busy.
