While COVID-19 is still impacting our society, the consequences for our economy are starting to become more visible. Not all companies will be able to survive, but history shows that those who come out winning started preparing for recovery earlier than their competitors. Other businesses started during times of crisis. Those who haven’t prepared may survive the downturn but find themselves overtaken by their competitors as recovery gets underway.

Innovation does not need to be new or original. It just needs to be valuable… One of my favorite quotes comes from Mark Twain : “There is no such thing as a new idea. It is impossible. We simply take a lot of old ideas and put them into a sort of mental kaleidoscope. We give them a turn and they make new and curious combinations. We keep on turning and making new combinations indefinitely; but they are the same old pieces of colored glass that have been in use through all the ages.&

We’ve all heard the buzzwords to describe new supply chain trends: resiliency, sustainability, AI, machine learning. But what do these really mean today? Over the past few years, manufacturing has had to adapt to and overcome a wide variety of supply chain trends and disruptions to stay as stable as possible. Stability has become key in this post-COVID world, and will remain key moving forward.

Procter & Gamble was able to take an air freshener product that was lagging at 4th place in terms of market share – to 1st place, adding 20 points of market share in just four months. How did they do that? It’s a simple tool called the Multiplication Technique. What is the Multiplication Technique? Multiplication is a technique where you take a component of the system, create a copy of it, and then change that copy in some counterintuitive way.

For over 12 years, I helped sales teams from the strongest challenger brands to the world’s most recognizable brand names sell their products to retailers of all sizes. After sitting through hundreds of B2B sales presentations, the number one piece of advice that I can offer is that it is never about your brand. Far too often, I watched as the salesperson fired up their well-designed presentation and then spent the next 20 minutes solely focused on demonstrating their brand’s success, influence

However, with some forethought and insights, you can build a successful product management team—one that collaborates to create a product that truly delights your customers.

Source: Flickr Let's face it: we often are pretty bad at learning from our own failures. We make excuses, blame uncontrollabe external causes, and argue that we simply have to "move on" and not dwell on the past. What about learning from others' failures? Can we improve by examining others' mistakes carefully and systematically? Bledow, Carette, Kuhnel, and Bister conducted an experimental study several years ago on this subject.
