Innovation lies in the hands of the courageous and the "risk hardy."
Innovation takes place when we try new things
in new ways
from new points of view.
The pirates had to have the courage to face
wild seas
well armed armadas
and capricious winds.
How do we find the courage to leave the known shore
to explore the open seas and discover new lands?
We prepare ourselves to be risk hardy.
One way to do this is to say yes to new opportunities and to
try something new on a regular basis.
In every company listed as highly innovative there is an element of courage in the company. In fact, courage is part of the culture. Leadership style supports courage by allowing people to fail.
After all, not all adventures turn out correctly the first time we venture out.
But we have to venture out if we are ever going to succeed.
So, my pirate friend, how do you become more courageous?
