What did I miss?
Good points. I’ve been worrying about the language that is used by many organisation s-talk Innovation when Improvement is more what they are intending to do. Healthcare is a classic sector where this constantly is the case. I blogged about this a while back http://spreadgoodpractice.blogspot.com/2009/04/innovation-may-be-barrier-to-improving.html
Hi Sarah,
Yes. How we define it is a barrier and it creates a lot of confusion. Some think it’s basic improvement and others view it as something radical. It’s actually both. You need to improve in order to build on those steps.
Small innovation can become big innovation. (See this post for reference: http://www.game-changer.net/2011/03/28/no-competition-no-innovation/)
Very interesting, thank you for sharing your post with me.
Cheers,
Jorge
