It always amazes me how we limit growth by not investing fully in innovation. While most large companies want to become more agile and innovative, many of them fail to turn this wish into a reality. There is this consistent need or pressure to grow, yet that specific needle stays stubbornly stuck in low growth numbers, even with all this innovation talk and desire.

Is your organization a little too comfortable? Are your people risk averse? Is there a blame culture? How can you encourage innovation by getting men and women to be more adventurous and entrepreneurial? How can you get them to take more risks? Here is an idea that is borrowed from the game of Monopoly – the Get out of Jail Free (GOJF) card.

Innovation capital is one of the primary catalysts to value creation. And while understanding and investing in innovation capital is crucial, building innovation capital lacks the focus it deserves. In fact, it isn’t even on most people's radar. If you Google “innovation capital” for instance, you tend to get venture capital companies as search results offering financial capital and hijacking this term.

IPsoft is, in many ways, an unusual entrant into the crowded, but burgeoning, artificial intelligence industry. First of all, it is not a startup, but a 20-year-old company and its leader isn’t some millennial savant, but a fashionable former NYU professor named Chetan Dube. It bills its cognitive agent, Amelia, as the “world’s most human.

I often get asked if one can or should model a non-profit using a Lean Canvas. The answer is a resounding yes. A nonprofit is essentially a multisided model made up of users (beneficiaries) and customers (donors). The main difference, from a modeling perspective, between a non-profit and a for-profit is that the former reinvests all its profit towards impact.

So we wanted to take a moment to talk about some common innovation fear that we see from first time innovators.

According to a McKinsey and Company article cited in CIO magazine more than 70% of corporate digital transformations fail. On paper it’s an equal playing field. The failing entities have the same technology as everyone else, certainly are drowning in very big data sets, and assuredly have a large number of very bright professionals eager.

Price drives the perception of value, and unfortunately most customers don’t understand value… Do you know what your customers really value? When I first started my business as a professional speaker, I realized that I didn’t have a clue.

“Thought.” Thought is epically powerful and hugely important. Tony Robbins, Bob Proctor, and before them, Napoleon Hill – all motivational rock stars – consistently drill into their audiences that NOTHING becomes a reality until or after it’s first a thought. Another variation on this idea is, “If you cannot conceive it, you cannot achieve it.”.

These past few days, I have been contemplating about time and how the thinking in different time horizons affects the decisions that we make in the moment. I have realised that we could make infinitely better and more intentional decisions if we were more intentional and thought about every decision in terms of different time horizons. This also led me to think about the cost of making decisions and how this impacts our everyday decisions.

I’ve just returned from Australia, and It’s a fascinating place. It shares a remarkable list of similarities with Canada – but there are also some key differences. We are both classified as small, open economies, but Australia’s population is smaller, just two-thirds of Canada’s. Likewise, GDP Down Under is smaller. Like Canada, Australia has an extensive, under-populated land mass, but that, too, is smaller than Canada’s, and the resource-base, less extensive.
