It’s common knowledge that innovation—i.e. the act of translating an idea or invention into a good or service that creates value for customers—is an organizational imperative in today’s ever-changing markets. Most of the discussion these days is focused on disruptive and on sustaining innovation (more on that in another post to come). But what about creativity? There are plenty of examples of innovative organizations succeeding (Apple, Uber, Amazon, etc.) They are undoubtedly very creative. Wrong. For the most part, it’s a matter of permission.

As more and more workers prioritize not just what they do, but how they do it, this vital approach to operations is becoming more a central focus of businesses from a variety of different sectors.
