Book excerpts - Ch1(E7): What makes innovation operations and transformations so complicated?

Mastering the art of Innovation-Operations: Tackling complexity and diversity"

Innovations operations are complicated because they incorporate uncertainty and complexity around several diversities.

1. Diversity of innovators - Experience as well as creative styles

2. Diversity of challenges - Inherent and contextual

3. Diversity of approaches - Models and strategies

Not all innovators are the same. Differences in experience, mindset, creative approach, professional mastery, and behavioral tendencies make innovation operations a celebration of differences.
