 We come up with new, better, faster, and cheaper ways of doing things.
To progressively get excellent at what we do, we must innovate.
An innovator:
- Always asks: “How can we make this better?”
- Finds new ways to do more with less.
- Is a big thinker, risk-taker, and open-minded person.
- Is adventurous and creative
- Embraces and drives change.
- Adapts to change.
- Looks for new and better ways to solve organizational issues.
- Improves the organization’s processes, products, and services.
To innovate means to come up with new and better ways of doing things. To be an innovation, the new way of doing things has to be effective and efficient as well. The key is not that it’s new, it’s better, cheaper, faster, and helps customers more.
In the context of an organization, it means to come up with new ideas and new ways to do things better. To be innovators means we are always finding and coming up with better ways to do something even better, at a lower cost, and to make a bigger impact on the people we serve.
It’s important to note that coming up with a better idea is only part of innovation. Actually implementing the new idea and perfecting it to work in the long run is what innovation is all about.
Innovation is important for the success of any business.
