standing up so number one I want you to

standing up so number one I want you to close your eyes and think about the last

close your eyes and think about the last

close your eyes and think about the last time you had an idea before you entered

time you had an idea before you entered

time you had an idea before you entered this auditorium today because I know you

this auditorium today because I know you

this auditorium today because I know you have got a lot of ideas too

have got a lot of ideas too

have got a lot of ideas too the last time you had an idea now I want

the last time you had an idea now I want

the last time you had an idea now I want you to think about where did you get it

you to think about where did you get it

like most people including myself ideas

like most people including myself ideas come in our brains and most of the time

come in our brains and most of the time

come in our brains and most of the time we throw them out we never

we throw them out we never

we throw them out we never ever give ideas their due-diligence

ever give ideas their due-diligence

ever give ideas their due-diligence right and this happens at organizations

right and this happens at organizations

right and this happens at organizations this even happens at larger scales we

this even happens at larger scales we

this even happens at larger scales we are built to generate new ideas and we

are built to generate new ideas and we

are built to generate new ideas and we do it on a regular basis however once we

do it on a regular basis however once we

do it on a regular basis however once we generate them we really don’t do much

generate them we really don’t do much

generate them we really don’t do much with them right so let me take you on a

with them right so let me take you on a

with them right so let me take you on a journey and I’m going to go to this

journey and I’m going to go to this

journey and I’m going to go to this so I began examining this problem about

so I began examining this problem about

so I began examining this problem about why do organizations struggle with ideas

why do organizations struggle with ideas

why do organizations struggle with ideas and depending on who you ask

and depending on who you ask

and depending on who you ask they will tell you that I began that

for books this is just not even a quarter of the page so we have generated

quarter of the page so we have generated

quarter of the page so we have generated so much knowledge every year there are

so much knowledge every year there are

so much knowledge every year there are no new books on innovation I am guilty

no new books on innovation I am guilty

no new books on innovation I am guilty of writing one of those myself all right

of writing one of those myself all right

of writing one of those myself all right and we keep generating books and books

and we keep generating books and books

and we keep generating books and books and books we’ve been writing about

and books we’ve been writing about

and books we’ve been writing about innovation since the 20s 1920s but why

innovation since the 20s 1920s but why

innovation since the 20s 1920s but why are we so bad do we not read these books

are we so bad do we not read these books

are we so bad do we not read these books no we read these books right so then I

no we read these books right so then I

no we read these books right so then I thought to myself okay well academics

thought to myself okay well academics

thought to myself okay well academics they write very strangely right we write

else so if you look up innovation frame

else so if you look up innovation frame books you have a bunch of them so people

books you have a bunch of them so people

books you have a bunch of them so people have taken ideas in books and distill

have taken ideas in books and distill

have taken ideas in books and distill them down to flowcharts and two-by-two

them down to flowcharts and two-by-two

them down to flowcharts and two-by-two matrices and I’m sure you’ve seen some

matrices and I’m sure you’ve seen some

matrices and I’m sure you’ve seen some of these so we we have the Twitter

of these so we we have the Twitter

of these so we we have the Twitter version of books which is this right
