Six ways to become a better leader 1.Balance work and play 2.Know who you are Everyone behaves differently, so it’s important that you look at how you go about business, what works for you and what doesn’t. Take notes of these points so that you have a platform to work from. 3.Test the leadership waters Look at an office scenario and write down how you would lead the team to get your objective completed. Now, take a look at how the current manager has gone about completing the task. Highlight points where you would do the same and mark off areas where you chose a different course of action. Now, evaluate the differences and see who would get the better results. 4.Trust your gut instinct One of the most important qualities of a leader is not second-guessing themselves. You should ideally have an idea of what you want to do and know how to get there. Research the project beforehand to give yourself that extra edge when making decisions. 5.Believe in yourself, as others do You didn’t get to be leader by luck; you’ve worked hard to earn it, and the higher powers are giving you the leadership role for a reason. If you receive criticism or negative feedback, use it to better your skills and knowledge. “We don’t ask you to believe in our ability to bring change, rather, we ask you to believe in yours.” – Barack Obama 6.Accept who you are The best leaders in the world realise that they don’t need to change who they are to be better. Instead, tweak certain aspects where needed,...

Ideate with them and not for them If you want to be an effective innovator in an organization you will have to ideate new concepts with them and not for them. Solve a relevant customer friction Why should they buy your innovation? That’s the question! You have to give them a very good reason why! Effective innovation provides simple solutions for relevant problems or dreams of the target group. You find them by reaching out to customers using personal visits, meeting them in focus groups, search in social media or using crowdsourcing. Use the voice of the customer mprove and pick the right ideas based on their feedback. Use the enthusiastic voice of the customer also to convince others it’s a wonderful concept. Bring back new business not only ideas The reason you went on an innovation journey often stems from a need to grow the business again. So don’t bring them ideas, bring them business and growth potential! In the boardroom your idea will be evaluated from at least three perspectives: The Customer: will they like it? The Business model: will it be profitable for us? The Technology: can we produce it? Show them how it’s feasible. Be sure to think outside the box on one hand and to present your idea inside the box on the other. I see in practice most CEO’s and Innovation directors choose the ideas they can relate to and they can imagine to be produced (with some investments). So show them how it’s feasible. And present partners to co-develop it with. Then your concept has a higher chance of becoming...
