Want to introduce a new product, new idea? Slap the word innovative on it. Better yet have someone else proclaim it’s innovative. But not everything that is designed, developed, introduced will be a huge innovation. There are hundreds of smaller innovations put out there every day and we don’t even notice them until we look back the way things were and how they are today. There’s a lot of hype around new ideas during the early stages. Then we get tired of them and say that wasn’t so much and then finally they creep into our daily lives. Innovation is seldom a violent upheaval it just happens because of what came before and how successfully you connect the dots.
