Why Companies Fail to Innovate –

Why Companies Fail to Innovate – | T.I.P.S. Tracking - I-Wheel - "UC File" | Scoop.it
Leaders are obsessed with innovation. Becoming more agile and innovative are among CEOs top priorities. Why, then, do so many companies fail to innovate? It’s not that companies lack the vision, ideas, or resources. They’re just bad at innovation by design — that is, they’ve created cultures and processes that work well to manage predictable, profitable, and efficient operations. But that’s not how to nurture innovation. That’s not how to disrupt markets.  So let’s look at the the key obstacles that get in the way of innovation:  Sending Mixed Messages I stopped counting the number of people who are frustrated
James Schreier's insight:

This is why programs like Joel Barker's "Innovation at the Verge" and "Tactics of Innovation' have value -- people and organizations can learn how to innovate!

Plenty. Up to 70% of the United States’ gross domestic product is tied to consumers. With widespread vaccination programs opening up more opportunities to leave the house and with money in-hand, consumers will be looking to spend money they have saved and government-provided stimulus. Retail, entertainment, travel–these are just a few industries stopped or slowed by the pandemic likely to experience a renaissance. Consumer activity will stimulate other business activity, as well. This sudden demand in products and services won’t come without buyers facing issues, which means customer service must be ready.

When molehills are worse than mountains

When molehills are worse than mountains | T.I.P.S. Tracking - I-Wheel - "UC File" | Scoop.it
Over time, the authors of a new study suggest, consumer frustration stemming from what they term microfailures — minor annoyances that tend not to be complained about — builds up, and it has consequences. Consumers can switch providers of services and products without giving the company a chance to redress their grievances, and management is left none the wiser. This makes it crucial for companies to learn how to spot microfailures.
James Schreier's insight:

Yes, it has consequences.   Organizations would profit from understanding the implications of these customer service issues.
