Therefore, hiring is perhaps the most crucial business function. As such, it should never be outsourced or delegated. So get the right people on your team. We will show you how.

I completely re-evaluated the role of innovation in business growth: before reading this book I have to admit I thought it only entailed product new features and technologies enhancements, while now I see it has everything to do with meeting customer needs and uncovering a business USP, which automatically translates in sales! Could not recommend it more!

Unlike most business innovation books I read over the last years (and even decades) when reading How to create innovation you immediately understand the authors have been there, innovating and transforming some of the world's most amazing brands. Great work!

Not only this book offers the most comprehensive innovation and business change overview but it really helps you take the next step, driving you step by step from theory to practice (also with super useful background notes and driving questions)

I really enjoyed the whole book, but mostly the culture chapter, mainly because I always failed to acknowledge its major role in favouring or inhibiting business growth. Loved the graphics that helped connect all the dots in a visually appealing (and way easier) way.

We’been willing to innovate our business for some years now, but then we always got stuck before we even started, because basically we had no idea where to start…This book helped us do just that: find the right starting point with guiding questions and an incredibly comprehensive innovation overview.

Why we use it
In our rapidly evolving world, hiring for mindset is more important than anything else, including skills and experience. In fact, you should hire when you find a great person, even if you aren’t sure what position they will eventually occupy. Also, we need a fundamentally different way of thinking about hiring. It is more a process of getting to know one another than a strict interview situation. This download package contains the key elements of a new hiring process, from the skills you should be looking for to the activities and questions that will guide the getting to know you process.
How It Works
This download package summarizes several vital tools. First, the hiring pyramid indicates that in an innovation context, the priority of hiring is mindset. You can train for skills, but without the right mindset, a person will not work well (or be happy) on an innovation team. Because mindset is a priority, we offer a set of questions that you can use to guide your discussion when you sit down with candidates for the first time. Gauge their curiosity and resilience rather than their past experiences and technical skills.
We also outline the onboarding process (and, if need be) off-boarding. Why not do an extended on-site trial period where candidates meet the team and begin to see how it works before both sides decide whether they will be a good fit? We also cover an ideal schedule for the hiring process amongst many other topics.
What is the goal of the model?
Finding the right people! Employees are the heart of a business and this is even more the case in an innovation context. Finding the right person takes time and effort, but building the right team the first time will save you a headache down the road.
