When it comes to innovation, too many people think of the lone genius who invents some breakthrough product, instead of a diverse team with each member contributing different perspectives and roles to create new value.

61 % The increase in court decisions regarding noncompete agreements between 2002 and 2012, according to a study conducted for the Wall Street Journal by the law firm Beck Reed Riden LLP. The noncompete agreement—a key tool employers use to keep talented employees from jumping ship to join competitors—is under scrutiny in Massachusetts, where the governor wants to ban them.

Somewhere back in the Dark Ages of IT- say two years ago, because that’s how fast the electronic world moves now ¬- we thought about technology as a tool to do business. Because members define the future of the organization, digital tools must be identified based on a deep understanding of their wants and needs. Innovative leaders constantly scan the environment to identify technology disruptions and consider if/how they can be leveraged.

What we admire about Roger Ebert’s social media engagement, and more, in today’s Lunchtime Links: A lost voice, found again: When Roger Ebert announced his thyroid cancer diagnosis in 2002 and lost his voice after a failed surgery in 2006, it seemed unlikely that he would continue to write. Several tools have made engagement via social media easy, but organizations should strive to have long-term relationships with their industry members.

“Video content has emerged as a highly versatile tool for associations to communicate with members—and it can be utilized and monetized for multiple purposes.” Can associations improve their IQ (innovation quotient)? “When I think of innovation, associations are the last group that comes to mind,” said Naylor’s Tompkins. “They’re often waiting for others [to react], or too afraid to take risks to try something innovative or proactive.”

As best-selling author and product innovation expert Tony Ulwick explained at last week’s Innova-Con 2014 conference in New York, don’t ask customers or members what they want in a product, ask them what types of “jobs” they need to have done better. Innova-Con is the annual meeting of the International Association of Innovation Professionals (IAOIP). Next month we’ll hear more from Ulwick and other proponents of systematic, outcome-driven innovation.
