Business today moves fast. So we like simple statements that speak to larger truths. It always seems that if we can find a simple rule of thumb—or maybe 3 to 5 bullet points for the really big picture stuff—managing a business would be much easier. Whenever a decision needs to be made, we could simply refer to the rule and go on with our day. Unfortunately, that often leads to cartoonish slogans rather than genuine managerial wisdom.

The effects of cultural differences for innovation are an interesting and extremely multifaceted topic. For most of us, it probably goes without saying that cross-cultural and multicultural capabilities are crucial in today’s globalized and hyperconnected world, and innovation is no exception. These capabilities are especially important if you’re working on it in a large international organization, as many of our customers are.

I have long talked about how the human brain aims to be as efficient as possible. One of the ways it achieves this is by linking together networks that often work together and strengthening the connections between those neurons , as well as making those networks faster at working together. However, a new series of brain imaging studies by UCLA researchers has found that the brains of highly creative Big-C people may be wired differently.

To achieve this, they implemented a visual system to track the movement of parts from the supplier to storage locations and finally to the assembly line.

These drugs were worth an estimated AUD $200 million, or about US $140 million.

Since the mid-1800s, the clinical component of medical education has been focused on the hospital setting. As a result, we have grounded how we teach – and what people learn – around a state of life most people wish to avoid: illness. Unfortunately, the focus of the teaching and thus the learning isn’t around how to prevent that illness. The focus is on how to fix the problem once it arises.
