Here are a few more gems from Scott Berkun’s book The Myths of Innovation. Seems I just can’t put this down.
ajfortin.com, Jul 2008Every great idea in history has the fat red stamp of rejection on its face.
The secret tragedy of innovators is that their desire to improve the world is rarely matched by support from people they hope to help.
No matter how amazing an idea is, until proven otherwise, its imagined benefits will pale in comparison to the real, and nonimagined , fear of change.
The future never enters the present as a finished product, but that doesn’t stop people from expecting it to arrive that way.
Talent is only as good as the environment it’s in.
Good managers of innovation recognize that they are in primary control over the environment, and it’s up to them to create a place for talented people to do their best work.
The difference betwenn success and failure is most often relentlessness, not talent or charisma. . .
