I recently wrote a post, “ Affordability versus Sustainability – a cause to be addressed.” That post looked at the shifts that I felt were underway in moving from a society that accepts where it is heading in expecting “affordability” is changing. I argued there is this growing recognition that a consistent amount of crisis points are causing growing anxiety and stress, and these tensions and pressures are not sustainable.

Innovation is the driver of societal progress. Without it, stakeholders and organizations alike aren’t able to improve their conditions. However, “innovation” in itself is a hard concept to grasp. What counts as “innovative,” and why? Who should be the subject of our efforts to innovate? Is there a more innovative solution than the one we’re coming up with?

A lot of innovation teams think that in order to be innovative, to be really creative, you have to be completely original. That means, that you need to create everything yourself. Even if it means starting from zero, where parts of what you need already exist in the market and can be used freely. This could not be further from the truth. And innovation teams which try to do everything themselves end up wasting a huge amount of time and resources because they reject ideas and knowledge which was

How many of your company’s ideas are stuck? How often does the exuberance of ideation become the fatigue of realization? We often see this.

I want you to visualise something, and make it as clear in your mind as possible. In your minds eye, as clearly as you can, imagine a Kornaf. If you need a quick reminder what that is: A Kornaf has been around for thousands of years but has only been known to humans for the past few hundred years. Originally from the South, it quickly travelled and became popular once its unique values were better understood.

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.
