Publisher's Synopsis
Innovation is paramount to survival today. Ideas are the pipeline to innovation. How your organization nurtures, reviews, and implements ideas will determine how you compete in today's world. Increasingly your entire workforce prefers to work on-line in more open collaborative environments. Yet leadership requires results to core issues they feel are the key strategies to your organization succeeding. Current approaches to linking ideas to on-line collaboration lack effective features of prior Idea Management processes that preceded them. The crowd can miss many great ideas. Strategic Collaboration is an approach to align your ideation activities to leadership goals in an online collaborative environment. It marries the strengths of prior Idea Management processes with the new tools of online collaboration. This book takes core concepts from the prior workbook by the author ("The A to Z of Idea Management - For Organizational Improvement and Innovation - 3rd Edition") and applies them directly to how organizations can integrate proven Idea Management strategies with popular Social Networking approaches. The author uses his over two decades experience in Idea Management and supplies an approach to Strategic Collaboration that provides results in a modern on-line environment. An example implementation is included.
