A growing trend over the past several years has been to host internal innovation challenges. Companies do this because they find it’s an excellent way to find solutions to long-standing problems, positively create culture (particularly in a remote workplace), and also to nurture the budding intrapreneurs who want to find career growth and new opportunities.

One of the big challenges to innovation is that many people think of it as a big program, like implementing the quality programs of the 1980s, or rethinking everything, like the re-engineering programs and right sizing programs of a more recent vintage. Thus, innovation is often "too big" and too disruptive, because it is seen as a platform change, or is defined too narrowly to create real results.

I want to admit a problem I have with you. A problem that makes my work ten times harder than it could be. But one which I cannot stop, because it is at the core of what I believe in. The problem is related to truth and facts. In my work, I need to be able to convince people to change their beliefs about their creativity and innovation ability. This requires them to sometimes change the belief about something they had previously thought was true, or sometimes even about their own identity.
