- Synopsis
- Innovation in a business powered by employee HEROes-Highly Empowered and Resourceful Operatives-is about speed, collaboration, and systems for capturing the best ideas. In this chapter, authors Josh Bernoff-coauthor of "Groundswell"-and Ted Schadler explain how these three elements enable employee HEROes to find the others who can help them get things started quickly. Speed, collaboration, and idea-capturing systems contribute to both minor, "sustaining" innovations and big, company-changing innovations. Using real-life examples from insurance giant Chubb Group and Deloitte Australia, the authors show how event-based contests and cross-silo communication tools can help jump-start the process of HEROes-based innovation. This chapter was originally published as Chapter 10 of Empowered: Unleash Your Employees, Energize Your Customers, and Transform Your Business
