I was recently interviewed by Roche for a two-part series about innovation in healthcare.
Interview #1 – Create a Culture of Innovation:
The primary focus of this interview was on how to create a culture of innovation.
- My definition of innovation
- Why thinking outside the box can reduce innovation
- A video with my “brick” exercise that demonstrates the power of positive constraints
- The importance of asking the right questions
- The three levels of work (support, core, and differentiating)
- The 5Ds of differentiation
- My FAST Innovation Model
You can read the first interview here on the Healthcare Transformers website.
Interview #2 – Best Practices for Innovating in Healthcare:
This conversation focused on where to get your best ideas. Given I write the book, Best Practices are Stupid, clearly I would be suggesting other places for finding inspiration.
- The three reasons best practices are stupid
- How to recognize best practices – and when to use them
- Why expertise is the enemy of innovation
- A video on how to leverage the expertise of others
- Innovation personalities and blindspots
- A video about my Personality Poker®
- How to ask the right questions and the negative impact of confirmation bias
- How leaders can stay one step ahead of the curve
- How to maintain momentum with innovation initiatives and avoid the antibodies that kill them
- How to build an innovative team and foster an innovative culture
