The unintended consequences of siloing innovation are not only that people become discouraged and disengaged, but we’re also leaving a lot of human potential on the table. In addition to that, when it comes to implementation, it can be a challenge to get buy-in from people who have had no say in the innovation process. How can we avoid the negative consequences of siloing innovation while still having accountability?

We need to create jobs that allow space for innovation and give our team members the resources and tools to innovate.
