The Human Element
Инновация в конечном счете рождается из разнообразия точек зрения. Поэтому, когда вы объединяете идеи из разных промышленных отраслей или из разных культур, именно тогда у вас появляются наилучшие условия для появления революционных идей – Франц Йохансен
Инновация начинается с человека и заканчивается человеком. Такие люди обладают смелостью раздвигать границы. Инновация также требует корпоративной культуры, которая питает и вознаграждает творческое мышление, где люди могут свободно выражать новые идеи, какими бы незначительными они не казались. И здесь ключевым фактором является успешное лидерство. Квалифицированный инновационный лидер должен обладать бесстрашием, дальновидностью и мудростью, он должен быть готов отстаивать смелые идеи.
letting people know that the quality of their idea, not the stripes on their shoulders is what counts.
По словам Джека Уэлча, в прошлом генерального директора «Дженерал Электрик», лидер мотивирует и вдохновляет тем, что он «…дает людям понять, что ценит именно качество их идей, а не количество нашивок на погонах». Все же, в современном глобальном рынке не просто вовлекать и мотивировать персонал, состоящий из людей разных возрастов, культур, имеющих разные навыки. Как же лидеру удается посадить всех работников на поезд инновационного направления и при этом видеть «свет в конце туннеля»? По словам глобального инженера Виджея Вакисварена, “…в каждом из нас спит инноватор”. В этом эпизоде мы посмотрим, как организации могут в максимальной мере использовать разнообразие персонала и пробудить инноватора в каждом из нас.

I was amazed that none of your panelists would invoke pioneers and giants of innovation such as James Bright and Peter Drucker to name at least two. Much of the foundation of this most crucial topic has been laid out years ago. No new theories have emerged. One simply needs to stand on the shoulders of those great thinkers and learn how to implement those principles.

I was very interested in many of the comments that were expressed on the show today regarding being innovative, having a money making idea that meets the needs of the people, generates sales and being willing to take risks.
The comments reflect what motivated me to invest in two inventions that are not just new ideas. They both are practical and will meet the needs of many as well as generate sales worldwide. J McDonald Location not provided

Thinking outside the box, thinking differently, not getting stuck into one way of thought, etc.
The reason each language has very different grammar is because people think about the same things differently.
This is why it is SO important to use non-english languages and to think in non-english languages.
Many things that work in one culture do not work in other cultures.
And, they should never.
It ruins cultures.
Wal-Mart is an example when they tried to do it the American way in China. They failed.
Thinking differently to any significant extent can't happen in one single language.
If it did, we would be able to cover all bases in the US.
Americans fail a lot more than they should due to not using non-english languages and being unable to comprehend other thought processes that can only truly be done in a different language.
Like on your show, countries that adopt the use of just english, are not innovative, nor will they ever be.
They just regurgitate the same thing that we already have in the US.
They are just slaves, and will never advance.
India is an example.
China, on the other hand, does translate most everything into Chinese, and has a goal of being the world leader in publishing everything from science to novels in Chinese.
I've known people from India and Pakistan who have told me, for example, that there is a bad mindset in those countries that if they use their native language, they are looked down upon compared to those that speak Western languages.
India is even importing Eastern Europeans to use in their advertising because they think the Western looking people are superior to their own.
India needs to start using Hindi instead as their main working and business language to be able to become innovative, and be proud of their culture.
If the language goes, the culture goes. Language accounts for over 50% of a culture.
If people can't feel proud to use their native language and that it is as important as any other, they will NEVER be innovative.
These are inseparable things, like breathing and living.
If breathing stops, life and thinking stop.
Americans are becoming very uncompetitive because they are mono-lingual, and are unable to think and adapt to other cultures. J Everett WA

This was a good show, but I'm disappointed by a few things:
1. Jack Welch is way too old school for a discussion of innovation today.
2. Suzy Welch too!
3. What about Gen X? Are we now totally irrelevant?
4. What everyone said sounds fine, but there is nothing new here. It's what we already know about innovation...push the conversation!

Innovation begins and grows with individuals committments to open collaberation of ideas, thoughts and strategies to achieve measurable results of mutally agreed upon goals and objectives.
