Innovation. Why Innovation is Hard. A little over a month ago I attended WSAEs National Summit on Innovation for Associations. As chair of WSAEs Innovation Task Force, I was instrumental in helping to frame WSAEs annual conference around the subject of innovation, and was even recognized as the chair of the conference itself.

The post-conference Euphoria (capitalized on purpose) that is what remains after an ASAE annual has finally start to wear off, and before all the excitement from Dallas subsides to everyday life, there are a few highlights and thoughts that stand out that I want to make sure don’t get lost in the next eleven months.

Innovation. Secrets of Innovation. This past week I attended the annual conference of one of my partner associations. Not surprisingly, the question of innovation came up. What can a bunch of art students teach my professional engineers about innovation? This really is one of the secrets of innovation, isnt it?

Want Innovation? Posted July 3, 2012. There was a time in the not-too-distant past when the people who were advocating for innovation in organizations were considered a bit on the fringe. Maybe they were the technology geeks–because that’s where we assumed innovation happened, at the product level.

Innovation. Its Not Innovation If It Only Serves You. One thing I struggle with as I try to lead my association towards more innovative practice is the need to define what innovation is and is not in our environment.
