What do you think about when you hear the word innovation ? For many people, it evokes brands that created something so new that it changed the way we interact with certain products or services forever: Uber. Netflix. Tesla. Disruptive innovations like these have a legendary status that is richly deserved, but it is actually incremental innovations that are more likely to provide sustainable fuel to drive ROI for your innovation programs year in, year out.

Leadership is at the center of every successful organization. Leaders who can think beyond today and set a vision for their organization are more successful in shaping its future. Visionary thinking involves thinking beyond the present and asking yourself what the future could look like. It is the foundation on which a leader builds a strategy for achieving the organization's desired future state.

Running a successful enterprise innovation management program can be a challenging mission. Multiple factors have to be considered, each of which affects potential outcomes. One key aspect is the level of support that an innovation program receives from an organization’s management.

We all like to have opinions and like act on them. When, for instance, people were asked if they supported bombing Agrabah, the fictional hometown of the Disney character Aladdin, 30% of Republicans and 19% of Democrats said yes. Yet our urge to make judgments has nothing to do with our ability to make wise choices. Humans tend to think in terms of narratives.

I wrote a post in June 2012 on thinking about the dark side of the innovation moon. As India quite rightly celebrates its “first” in lunar exploration by landing near the south side of the moon , the dark side, it prompted me to look back at this post and decide to republish this again here. Have you ever wondered what is on the other side of the moon when you look up towards it?

Documents are the backbone of enterprise operations, but they are also a common source of inefficiency. From buried insights to manual handoffs, document-based workflows can quietly stall decision-making and drain resources. For large, complex organizations, legacy systems and siloed processes create friction that AI is uniquely positioned to resolve.
