Pushing-through pushbacks.
Successful innovations require the integration of multiple stakeholders, professional practices, practical skills, and management of uncertainty.
Even seemingly simple innovations can transform into a dramatic experience.
Dramas guide our attention but can easily overwhelm us. Because of this characteristic, dramas are both a catalyst and an inhibitor of learning and change. Dramas are vital for long-term growth but lethal for short-term well-being.
​
For ages, human drama has shaped our individual, organizational, and social achievements as well as it's failures.
​
Understanding how drama accelerates and slows creativity and innovation in business settings is key for anyone who wants to increase the impact and scale of innovations.
Why read this book?
​
Innovation is a bumpy ride. Full of excitement, frustrations, tensions, and conflicts that can easily escalate into a myriad of dramas that consume attention and resources. To fully become lean and agile, we must be mindful of innovation dramas and acknowledge their outcomes before they navigate us away from our potential.
​
Who should read this book?
​
-
Executives who lead innovation endeavors and pay for preventable delays and complications.
-
Investors and partners that invest valuable resources and efforts in startups that operate in conditions of uncertainty
-
Innovation leaders and Innovation managers in the trenches of transformations, dealing with the daily servings of VUCA, and preparing the charge into the future
-
Anyone interested in innovating ten times more, in a tenth of the current effort.
TL; DR.
Transform faster than the pace of change.
​
The gaps between strategy and execution, between transformation and conformity, between imagination and realization, and between theory and practice generate lots of drama.
Embrace the drama instead of avoiding it.
The innovators' drama is the drama of change agents who need to push-through push-backs, and produce prosperity in conditions of scarcity.
Identifying and diffusing dramas quickly is essential for maintaining creative flows and momentums. ​
Find out how to never get stuck. Discover the five constraints that interrupt creative flows, understand the real price of innovation, and determine what needs to be done, to make sure "jobs to be done" lead to "getting things done".
