Employee engagement is what causes employees to want to give extra effort at work. Improve employee engagement and you build an environment that cultivates innovation.

Since they consider themselves a valuable team member, they’re willing to do more than what is strictly required.

The average number of years a company spends on the Fortune 500 list is dropping. World-class corporations spend less time at the top than they once did. Fifty years ago, a company on the Fortune 500 list could expect to stay there for 33 years, but by 1990, that tenure had shrunk to 20 years. By the year 2026, forecasters expect that the average length of time spent on the Fortune 500 will be 14 years.

Often a start-up company will be bought for its IP rather than its products or sales revenues. Here are some tips on patents. You do not need a working prototype before a patent application is filed.

Most doctors, scientists, engineers, business school grads and lawyers I’ve taught don’t have an entrepreneurial mindset. There are lots of reasons why, some of which have to do with how they are chosen by their respective educational establishments.

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.
