The winning habit of

intellectual curiosity


To thrive today & continue to succeed tomorrow, you have to innovate


Many companies collect the same information the same ways they always have

We don’t believe what we see… We see what we already believe…

…and we seek constantly to prove ourselves right



Take time to pause & look around


Force yourself to look in new places & at new ways of doing

things


Build ways of slowing down into

daily routines


Subscribe to trend websites.

1 x per month have an executive summary of a

trend. What might it mean to

your customers, your industry, your business?


Consider internal data

Ask & listen: What do you consider the

greatest challenge facing our company?

What do you think is going to put us out of business?

What should we do differently?


Watch TED & TED-like videos

Discuss as a group Present throughout your organization


Read across multiple genres Study your own industry Review your competitor’s websites Gather news from various diverse sources

Examine other successful products & services


Talk about other industries Ponder & discuss: What can we learn from them? What is similar about our customers? What is similar about our approach, products, services…?


Go to lunch with someone from another company

Learn about their business, their customers, their products…


Notice more Look for things that surprise you Pay attention to information that makes you uncomfortable

Beware of thinking- that doesn’t apply to us; that’s a dumb idea; that won’t work here…

Use these techniques to create the habit of looking up & around.

You’ll be amazed at what you see & thunk!
