I'm going to start a series of blog posts about what 15 years of innovation consulting has taught me. I'm happy to say I've learned a lot about innovation in corporations, and also somewhat excited to say I'm still learning, because the pace and nature of innovation is changing so rapidly. However, there are still so many basic, fundamental things that companies either overlook or fail to realize that going back to the basics is important.

There are many reasons why your startup will fail, but the main ones are 1) you create a product or service no one wants to buy, and 2) you do not have a profitable and VAST business model. Likewise, there are many reasons why your corporate or organizational innovation initiative will fail. Most of the time it’s.

When H.G. Wells was born in 1866, there was no electricity or cars or even indoor plumbing. Still, his active imagination conjured up a world of time machines, space travel and genetic engineering. This was all completely fantasy, but his books foresaw many modern inventions, such as email, lasers and nuclear energy. It’s no accident.

One of Black Mirror’s favorite things to do is imagine a world that is heavily influenced by a singular piece of technology. We’ve seen episodes centered around virtual reality headsets, neural implants that manipulate perceptions of reality, a Google Glass like device that monitors everything you do, and multiple methods of extracting and downloading one’s consciousness.

I have an overactive imagination (shocking, I know) and so I usually have pretty wild, action-packed dreams. Most nights I can even remember what happens in vivid detail, enabling me to write them down or recount them with my friends. To the point where I’ve even been able to use some of my night-time adventures to generate incredible screenplay ideas that my waking mind never would have come up with on its own.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

This evening, I'm writing this blog post as I look out on the streets of Dublin, Ireland. For those who have visited this nation's capital, you know that it's quite a vibrant city. Fortunately, I've managed to be here during a wonderful period of sunny, albeit quite cool, weather. Watching people stroll by on the cobblestone streets and sidewalks reminds me of the of power of travel as a stimulant for our creativity.

When it comes to innovation , we too often focus on the importance of the individual within the process. In business, we usually identify good innovators and foster their ability to develop creative practical solutions to new problems. Less attention is paid to the structures and organizational patterns that can promote and scale a culture of innovation and thus the whole enterprise.
