Red Thread Thinking by Debra Kaye for Delivering Innovation • Red Thread Thinking teaches you how to “stretch, tangle and weave together” the five essential elements of “brilliant innovation,” which are: • First, to innovate successfully, you must bring new ideas to the marketplace. • Brainstorming may not spur creativity; rely instead on rest, exercise and meditation. • Second, “game changing” ideas come from “understanding culture.” • Third, develop your “associative abilities” to discern and exploit the connections among “unrelated concepts” and disparate fields. • Fourth, make your design as simple as possible to draw people to your innovation. • Fifth, failure is an essential and repeated step in the innovation process. Be prepared to have your ideas simply not work…and to persevere. • Passion provides the fuel that keeps you going as you explore new areas, get stuck, try new approaches, fail and try again. • Business and innovation don’t exist just to earn money; they can make the world better.
