The Tower Of Babel by Pieter Bruegel the Elder (1563). Central to any organizational innovation building, the enormous value of having a consistent common language is paramount; it is essential to gain identification and understanding that all can relate to; it provides the backbone to a clear, united “sense of purpose” Building upon this common language gives a greater chance of effective communication to place the innovation activities into their appropriate context.

Next year will be different, but we don’t know how it will be different. All we know is that it will be different. Some things will be the same and some will be different. The trouble is that we won’t know which is which until we do. We can speculate on how it will be different, but the Universe doesn’t care about our speculation. Sure, it can be helpful to think about how things may go, but as long as we hold on to the may -ness of our speculations.

Ideas inspire people to change how we do the things we do. But ideas by themselves are just an inkling of what could be. Ideas that remain ideas forever eventually become ideas of the past, things we once thought could change the world. But never did. No one ever changed the world by just thinking […].

Source: Mission to Learn We can learn a great deal about setting and achieving goals by studying how people engage in physical exercise. That's precisely what University of Pennsylvania scholar Katy Milkman has done very successfully in her career. She features some of that insightful research in her terrific new book, How to Change: The Science of Getting from Where You Are to Where You Want to Be.
