Description
In this episode, Tracey Newman and Dan Bentley discuss four common mistakes organisations make that can hinder their ability to innovate successfully. The mistakes covered include a lack of structured innovation processes, internal rather than client-focused innovation, risk-averse leadership styles, and not having a compelling reason for change.Here is a taste of what Tracey and Dan cover in the conversation:Common innovation mistakes in organisations.Organisations often lack a structured approach to innovation, leading to inconsistent ideation and lack of prioritisation. Lack of resourcing and clear criteria for evaluating ideas can hinder successful innovation.Internal vs. client-focused innovation.Leaders must create space and resources for innovation to succeed, rather than relying on chance or expecting employees to innovate in their free time.Organisations often prioritise internal efficiency over client needs, leading to decisions that make life more difficult for those they aim to support.Leaders who prioritise learning and understanding client needs over ego and internal efficiency can create a more impactful and client-centered organisation.Leaders who are risk-averse and don't have a reason for change often stifle innovation and learning.Links from the episode:Co-design For Impact - Co-design Training: Click hereThe Impacto Consulting website: Click hereImpacto Consulting on LinkedIn: Click here
