How to make a fast and successful way to get new ideas? I will use examples of successful implementations that created new product discoveries or added new value to the current product? How to connect sales, product managers and developers or employees in innovation activities.
I was in charge of setting new innovation activity in the organisation that needed fast and simple innovation challenge. Connecting all stakeholders and bringing tailored approach resulted in more innovators involved, encreased number of ideas, but also - the most important - better quality of ideas.
