It makes sense that sustainability and innovation go together naturally in business. The best innovations leave the earth better than they found it. With individuals and businesses becoming more concerned about and involved in sustainability issues, innovation has embraced sustainability more fully in recent years. So closely intertwined are the two concepts that today’s sustainability leaders are 400 percent more likely to be considered innovation leaders compared to non-sustainability leaders,

Retailers know the clock is ticking–legacy SAP Commerce support ends in 2026. Legacy platforms are becoming a liability burdened by complexity, rigidity, and mounting operational costs.

Years ago, Johnny Cochrane convinced a jury that OJ Simpson was not guilty of murdering Nichole Simpson. While there were undoubtedly many factors that led to the acquittal, one of the biggest factors was the gloves. When OJ tried on the gloves in the witness stand, the gloves did not seem to fit his hands. Cochrane then uttered the famous line in his closing: if the gloves do not fit you must acquit.

Driving True Innovation Within Your Organization Means You Must Outline Your Goals and Priorities Clearly. In January 1996, two Stanford PhD students started working on a research project that would change the world. They nicknamed their project BackRub, because it checked backlinks of websites to determine their importance. Today, that project has become known as Google and its two founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, have completely changed the way the world works.

Are you safe? Or are you on the edge of irrelevance? Companies disappear all the time without a word, due to changing cultural values, changing technology, or changing audience demographics. People simply move on and leave the past behind. That’s precisely what you have to do if you want your company to survive. It’s really not as hard as you think to read the signs of a rapidly approaching upheaval in your industry.

Eighty percent of nonprofit leaders consider innovation to be mandatory, yet of those, only 40 percent think their organization is ready for innovation. Leaders recognize the importance of innovation, yet many aren’t sure how to make their organizations innovation-ready. One problem with innovation strategy in nonprofits is that since they are not for profit, they don’t necessarily push themselves to “compete” by improving their business models or offering innovative products and services.

Measuring innovation isn’t the same as measuring traditional business metrics like market size, gross margins, or return on investment. Good innovation management requires its own set of metrics. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t measure innovation success. You simply have to know which measuring sticks to use. Though good innovation management operates at all the different stages of the innovation process, the three innovation stages that are most amenable to measurement are the “ideation” s

Innovation is not just an endless succession of blue-sky concepts. Brainstorming and even daydreaming may play a role in innovation, but practicality is required to bring innovative ideas to life. ?.

The magical potency of positive thinking has been a common theme among motivational speakers for a long time. In 1952 Norman Vincent Peale published his seminal book, The Power of Positive Thinking. He advocated that you should always be optimistic. You should build a mental picture of yourself succeeding. And at the same time you should drive out negative thoughts, doubts and self-criticism.

I was speaking with a long time colleague and trusted branding partner, Kevin Polonofsky from Revered recently about branding and marketing.
