The 7-Step Advanced Leadership Program
6.INNOVATION & CHANGE: BREAKING THE RULES
We often think of innovation as creativity, but as Harvard professor Theodore Levitt points out, “the difference between innovation and creativity is the difference between thinking about getting things done in the world, and getting things done. Creativity thinks up new things, innovation does new things.”
Peter Drucker defines innovation as “change that creates a new dimension of performance.” Leaders can create environments, give people the tools, and set the expectations to make innovation part of daily work. They should take the time to explain to their teams that they must abandon practices that no longer work.
While great leaders in the world might seem to have little in common, they all excel at turning every team member’s talent into palpable performance, and they do not hesitate to break virtually every rule, held sacred by conventional wisdom. Leaders know that the business climate is in permanent flux and that different approaches to lead people are necessary. They must be open to new opportunities, find ways to be innovative, and be willing to change.
