The biggest gap in innovation isn’t creativity. It’s absorption. We keep inventing faster than we can integrate. Read the full piece: 👉 innovationand.org/p/were-great-at-inventing-terrible #innovation #jtbd #productinnovation #businessmodel #founders #strategy #startups

Many innovation teams fall into problemism and solutionism — defining what they want to fix, or doing endless user research without outcome and traction. 👉 Full reflection: innovationand.org/p/problemism...

“You scroll. They profit. Life slips by.”

Most founders start with “Can we build it?” — feasibility. The most expensive risk. The wrong order. Learn desirability and viability first, or you’re running the costliest, dumbest experiment in innovation. Check out my innovators toolkit: yetiart.gumroad.com?section=MZLx...

If I had to explain why many innovations fail to an 8-year-old: teams try to “make the best toy ever,” adding wheels, lights, buttons. But what are kids really trying to do? Have fun, play with friends, show off, learn, feel brave. Watch them play and solve that job, not just the toy.

When Production Changes Its Job Car plants were built for scale, not agility. But stable demand is gone. Now, giants like Volkswagen face silent factories—not from failure, but because the old job is done. A new one is waiting. Read: When the Factories Go Silent innovationand.org/p/when-the-f...
