We discussed a wide range topics including:
- How organizational dynamics (corporate antibodies) block innovation
- Why innovation success requires CEO and Board support.
- Why the direct CEO sponsorship is required an innovation effort (can’t be delegated)
- Why an organization should only focus on one innovation effort a time. Not 2 or 3.
- How Steve Jobs used the “hour glass” approach to innovation
- The best culture of innovation is “mission/cause” based
- The decline of the HP culture
- What are the “next things” that VC’s are looking at
