Episode Transcript
Today’s question is: how to inspire innovation with your team? Well, I’ll tell you if you look back through history, innovation was never about just one person. It doesn’t matter what idea it was, it always took a team to make it better. So, think about that. What is it that you’re doing, as you’re in your work environment, to take something and have a good idea and make that idea the best it can possibly be? Because it’s not about one person that can do all of that. One person is never everything. The best way to inspire innovation on your team is to reward it. What happens often is that people will go ahead and simply attribute innovation to one person. Maybe it was the person that generated the idea. Maybe it was the person that had the end product. But what are you doing to actually reward it throughout the entire team process? That’s what you need to be rewarding and celebrating every single day. Until next time, keep innovating.
