5. WHAT DO LEADING INNOVATORS DO DIFFERENTLY
 Every year, IdeaScale hosts the global Innovation Management Awards and honors winners in three different
categories: engagement, process, and implementation.
 But there were a few notable traits shared between some very diverse organizations: NASA, the Cleveland
Cavaliers, and PSA International. The techniques that they all use to engage, decide, and build new ideas that
we thought were particularly noteworthy are: recognition, gamification, and professional development.
 Recognition
 Ideas are key for whenever you’re building an innovation program.
 These can come for any source be it from the dedicated team, unexpected places, or anywhere
 Rewarding those who seeded ideas and helped build them is more about an investment of attention more
than dollars. Be sure to celebrate your contributors and one of the best ways to reward them is to invest in
their future.
 Recent research suggests that  one of the most valuable ways to recognize someone is to acknowledge
their accomplishments to their manager directly – even if it’s just an email mention.
 NASA, in particular, excels in this capacity – including it as part of every campaign that they complete, but
it is easily replicable by any innovation program
Continued..
 Gamification.
 You can incentivize for participation in the process, for decision making, for implementation, and you can
show the network of connections that make ideas possible.
 Every idea that you see is a representation of a group of people who conspired to build and deliver on it.
 Some people create tournament-like competitions, some rank ideas and participants. Eg.Hackathons that
honor creators
 You’re engaging others in the innovation process, you should make it fun.
 Professional Development.
 Innovation is an investment in people more than it is an investment in technology.
 The best innovation leaders recognize this and are finding ways to train their workforce.
 in how to come up with ideas, in how to build on one another’s ideas, in how to network for resources
that will turn ideas into projects.

growing.

fastest, deepest, most consequential disruptions of transportation in history.”

related to remote work, engineering topics, safety, and more with their entire distributed workforce.
 What is a virtual innovation lab?
 It’s essentially an online space that can boost transformation initiatives by engaging an entire workforce
(no matter how remote or distributed) in the idea process from ideation to implementation.

ideas – especially now in the era of remote work when this kind of work cannot always take place in
person.
