If you stick around innovation long enough you'll probably come to believe that we are all dead-enders. After all, what group of people could willingly embrace as much failure with such a positive attitude? Failure, you'll be reminded, is necessary for innovation. I like to quote the saying that my ski instructor told me years ago - "if you aren't falling, you aren't trying hard enough".

Contrary to the cliche, just getting out of the box is the worst way to innovate. If there’s a poster-child cliche for innovation it has to be “get out of the box.” I’ve got some breaking news for you, the hardest part of innovation isn’t getting out of the box. In fact, getting out of.

Nobody likes a silo. Or a stovepipe for that matter. These insular structures restrict the flow of information, which makes it hard to coordinate action and adapt to change. In some cases, it can even lead to disastrous consequences like the General Motors ignition switch scandal. So it should be no surprise that managers try.

It is funny but that often-used phrase “ what goes around, comes around ” seems appropriate here. I was catching up with my collaborate and sparring partner on “all things innovating”, Jeffrey Phillips and within our recent conversation, some of our discussions sort of triggered a reflection back to some fundamental work we undertook some years back.

We've reached a couple of interesting milestones in a very short period of time, and it behooves us to pay attention to the changes in what has been an important industry - photography. For innovators, it's been easy to kick Kodak around, for having missed the transition to digital photography while owning many of the patents. However, Kodak by itself isn't the whole story in the world of photography.

Two weeks ago, my wife and I looked at the weekend weather report – more rain. If you live in the Washington, D.C. area, then you’ve experienced record breaking rainfall recently. On top of that, our nine month old is like a bull in a China shop right now. So in spite of the weather, staying inside our house all day is not an option. But where would we go to stretch our legs?

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.

No matter your team or department, at some point I bet you’ve been asked to provide the return-on-investment (ROI) of a project, tool or process.
