The Innovation Excellence website provide a range of thoughts and trends on innovation. On the site, Holly Green posted an interesting article regarding the biases that exist within an organisation and hinder its decision-making capacity and therfore its innovation capability. Some key points from the article:
- Actively seeking out contrary data to ensure that key decision makers had all the information they need to make the best decision
- Allowing people with conflicting points of view to openly express their opinions
- Thoroughly reviewing the business case for the decision, even when senior executives strongly supported the decision
- Establishing processes and lines of communication to ensure that truly innovative ideas reach the senior management level
