Most high-profile stories of creative innovation tell of the Apples, Googles and Teslas of the world. Forward-thinking and a sense of discovery are regarded as rare organizational qualities—the domain of a select few. But in reality, solving problems through experimentation and trial-and-error learning is humankind’s superpower. As Harvard evolutionary anthropologist Joseph Henrich puts it, culture is the secret of our success as a species. Behind the scenes at companies that drive our economy, empowered employees innovate in unseen everyday ways. Internal-led organizational innovation can have a huge impact—and reflect an organization’s commitment to continuous improvement and evolution. IndustryWeek | #Manufacturing | #Culture

𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 Two thoughts I like from this article https://lnkd.in/dPptibDH "Most high-profile stories of creative innovation tell of the Apples, Googles and Teslas of the world.

And "Continuous improvement and learning are arguably the most powerful forms of everyday innovation. Subtle tweaks and improvements to manufacturing processes might not make headline news, but they engage employees in essential and motivating ways. Empowering employees to innovate in how they work not only fulfills a deep human need; it also contributes to more efficient and effective outcomes." #MicrosoftGarage #Innovation #Culture

An awesome article! This piece really hit home for me. It talks about how anyone can be innovative in their field, but it takes daily effort to nurture that mindset. What I found particularly inspiring is the idea that innovation isn't limited to a few; it’s a skill we can all build through curiosity, ongoing learning, and working together. The article lays out practical steps to help us do just that, making it clear that anyone can start being more innovative right away. Big thanks to the author for this insightful read. It’s a great reminder that while innovation can be tough, it’s a skill worth cultivating every day.
