Five misconceptions about Innovators: - The smarter you are the more innovative you are - The young are more innovative than the old - Innovation is reserved for the few - Innovation is individually inspired - You can’t manage innovators Creative Solutions Consulting, LLC

“ A key thing to remember is that truly innovative strategies are always, and I mean always, the result of lucky foresight. Foresight, however, doesn’t emerge in a sterile vacuum; it emerges in the fertile loam of experience, coincident trends, unexpected conversations, random musings, career detours, and unfulfilled aspirations.” Gary Hamel Fortune Magazine

Do These Characteristics Fit You? 1. Persistence 2. Passion and intellectual curiosity 3. Independent minded, willingness to go against the grain 4. Ability to recognize and combine patterns into new ideas 5. Intuitive yet analytical with an ability to understand and interpret business data 6. Ability to ‘sell’ ideas and concepts 7. Focused on the future 8. Ability to draw on wide networks for perspective, advice and accomplishing tasks 9. Tolerance for risk and ambiguity 10. Willingness to fail and learn from failure Lodstar, Inc. - A consulting firm on Innovation Creative Solutions Consulting, LLC
