Product Innovation: When Constraints Are Your Friend

with Robert Siegel
Innovation – It is the most urgent need of most businesses today.
Every person and every business is searching for innovations to
products, services, methods, and procedures. Yet with all of this
desire for innovation we constrain ourselves with systems limitations,
internal bureaucracy, politics, and policies, and that’s before we
layer on the multitude of government rules and regulations. People
bemoan these constraints on innovation calling them barriers to
creativity and new ideas. Too bad. They’re missing great opportunities.
You see, constraints are your friends.
