How Innovation Works
Creative thinking
Reframe how you think of innovation
from How Innovation Works: Serendipity, Energy and the Saving of Time by Matt Ridley
How to Apply This
- Write down three ideas or products that you consider an invention.
- Evaluate each product or idea you listed above. Ask yourself, “Are they truly inventions or innovations?”
Innovation is a new method or product that becomes a new practice somewhere in the world. Inventions, on the other hand, are the creation of something wholly new that has never been before, although they are not always useful to the world. - Change your answers based on your evaluation.
