The idea that one should invoke a sense of play around challenges is not a new one. All that said, simple more straightforward ideas for play in day-to-day behavior are harder to come by. Here are Nine Ways to play at work — in which you might do a better job of playing with concepts, challenges, ideas, and solutions. DO NOT do this to an idea that’s just come out of someone’s mouth.

While an innovation strategy that suggests throwing a party to celebrate a failed idea seems outrageous, the message from the pharma companies is that it’s smart business. Something to Think about for Your Business: How does your organization create opportunities for all employees to invest in innovation, even if you are not looking for them to generate or develop new product ideas?

That improved understanding, directly applied to an innovation challenge, is how you get to a breakthrough idea. Insights gained inspire ideas to create something new. Sessions often fail to find breakthrough ideas. The hard part is the integration with the challenge, but if you do it properly, it pays off in breakthrough ideas. Do you have an upcoming meeting that really needs an engaging workshop where people learn something useful?

I am often asked to give corporate innovation training workshops. They readily absorb the ideas and the methods. In the interactive modules they generate and select great ideas for the company. We select and present the best ideas at the end of the workshop. However, when I follow up in say two months’ time and ask which of the great ideas are implemented or underway the answer is muted.

I can almost guarantee you’ll have ideas. This simple combination experiment only scratches the surface, you usually need more scaffolding and structure to go beyond obvious ideas. Why not do a workshop dedicated to new combinations on a yearly or bi-yearly basis? Why are idea generation tools for deliberate combinations needed? It’s assumed that the team of idea people will just do combinations organically. It’s deep idea exploration.

Here are some ideas. Develop a way to track and manage ideas generated from innovation workshops. It doesn’t have to be an expensive system; just something to document ideas. You’ll be able to measure the inputs to innovation – training, workshops, and so on – as well as the outputs – ideas, patents, etc. At some point in your journey to drive innovation, you’ll want to take a deep breath and ask – what happened here? What have we achieved?

I was running a workshop with a multinational engineering firm when I ran into a perfect example of an air sandwich, which illustrates this point. The bars reflect how two teams of managers, a senior team and a junior team, rank this firm on the five stages in the innovation process – idea generation, selection, and implementation, as well as sustaining innovations and diffusing them. They are very strong at generating ideas.

Think of the improved innovation results they could get if they not only engaged their employees in the innovation process but also helped them to learn about that process and develop their skills in generating, developing, and analyzing ideas. Most of us didn’t major in “innovation” in college or even have a course or a single 2 hour-long workshop on the topic. Think of the difference a higher quality and quantity of ideas could make.

The nook and cranny strategic thinking exercises term popped into my head during a Brainzooming client workshop.

Its own definition is pretty much useless: “the action or process of innovating” Using the traditional sources for a definition such as the Oxford dictionary also doesn’t help much, with their answer being “Make changes in something established, especially by introducing new methods, ideas, or products” So I contacted a selection of my fellow innovation experts to see how they talk about innovation with their clients, and compiled the results for you here.
