One of these well-trodden and expected pathways is to "train" people on new tools and methods when introducing a new project or capability. However, since most innovation is "one and done", the vast majority of people don't regularly exercise their innovation skills and experiences. And, once they've done that, do it again.

How then can we imagine that we can layer on another "important" task - an innovation project or activity - when these folks can barely keep their heads above water on the tasks they are reasonably good at? It does not start and end with idea generation. Innovation will always draw the short straw.

I was leading an innovation training session, talking about the reasons for conducting trend spotting and scenario planning prior to idea generation. They typically have few tools to help re-prioritize projects and almost always have the wrong skills available for the next project in the hopper.

If your Account Services department (or whoever writes project briefs) delivers vague, incomplete, or hard-to-read briefs to your "creatives", you got trouble in River City. Exercising.

Companies like Lloyd’s , Oracle , Cisco, SAS, UTS and Allen & Overy all use Innovation Labs – be it to connect with smaller start-ups, test technologies, or to foster ideas and thinking.

If your project briefs are vague, incomplete, or non-existent, you have just complicated the situation. Your team doesn't actually know what your customers want, no one is responsible for writing new project briefs, or no one is actually reading/understanding the briefs. Exercising. Unfortunately, this is all too common.

Just like a gardener needs a hose without holes to water their plants, so do the creative people in your organization need a hole-free way to bring their ideas to fruition. Spontaneous idea generation is great. Exercising. And because they don't, many awesome ideas never get planted in your garden. The reasons?
