Innovation… This is the fuel of a successful company. And it is even more important on an individual level, where the employee becomes an agent of growth for the company.
Therefore, we thought it would be fair to spend a little time today talking about how to be innovative. Separating everything into small tips and habits that will transform your daily actions and steps to achieve an excellent means of transformation for your company.
How to work on innovation?
It is really not easy to work with this concept, as we are dealing with a Soft Skill much sought after, but rarely found.
Winning something that for some people only seems like an innate gift is not that exciting. But the truth is that anyone can be innovative, as long as they are properly guided in the following steps:
1 – Stay updated
Much of the innovation need not be entirely new. Some technologies, techniques and work frameworks can be imported from companies that have already started with them some time ago.
However, it is common to find things that have never been tried before within your business niche. So, when you roll up your sleeves and start doing things in a new way, you will already be innovating.
Your company may be missing out on a lot by adopting measures that are from the Stone Age, especially when it comes to the IT sector.
Some software can save you literally thousands of hours of work. In addition to allowing you to Insights, increase process safety and even find problems that go unnoticed by us.
2 – Learn from your mistakes
One of the most common things people do when they start trying to incorporate innovation into their routine is to make a lot of mistakes. Especially when it comes to implementing mediocre plans and ideas.
And that's okay, making mistakes is part of the process. Whenever you make a mistake, analyze each point and see if the problem was in the idea, or in the implementation.
Was the implementation done correctly? Or was the error in a fundamental concept that was ignored?
Knowing how to analyze the problem is one of the best ways to find solutions. However, it is also important to understand that this does not give the person carte blanche to simply start acting however they want.
Often creating really bad situations for everyone to test something random. Innovation is also about being prudent.
3 – Write everything down
During our normal workdays, it is quite normal for us to have several interesting discoveries. These are small insights or ideas that can really lead to something positive.
But since we don't have time to work on that thought, it's common for us to leave it for later. The problem then becomes remembering these actions later.
So, the best way to resolve the situation would be to actually write everything down whenever it appears so that at a suitable time you can evaluate the situation.
Final considerations
Innovation is not a process that happens overnight. In order to start working on a culture of innovation in your company, you need to have a good foundation.
