Synopsis:

Framing the Innovation Conversation.

"The Design, Invention, Development and/or Implementation of New or Altered Products, Services, Processes, Systems, Organizational Structures or Business Models (for the purposes of creating new value for customers and financial returns for the firm)."

The Cheaper, Better, Faster Equation.

"Creativity + Research and Development + Entrepreneurship + Innovation = Cheaper, Better, Faster."

The "WORK" Yet Unfinished.

"The committee recognized that, at least at this time, there is only Limited Knowledge about Innovation Drivers, Impediments and Enablers."

* In other worlds, You can't measure what you don't yet understand akin to pinning the tail on the donkey." (Jim Ross)

The "Creative Tension" Elemental Components (Unfolding in the Transformational Moment)

Intentional: Traditional SET Workers (Scientist's, Engineers, Technical versus Artists and Designers)
