Building Your Own Innovation Engine, with Scott Anthony

The Innovation Engine is a podcast series that discusses innovation through the lenses of corporate leadership, company culture, and emerging trends and technologies. The podcast features weekly interviews with best-selling authors, C-Level executives, and innovation experts from around the world. It is available on iTunes, Stitcher Radio, and SoundCloud.

Scott Anthony joins us on this episode of The Innovation Engine podcast to look at, fittingly enough, how to build your company’s very own innovation engine. We talk about the four component pieces that drive an innovation factory, how the first 90 days of building your innovation engine should look, and why it’s important to kill “zombie projects” that drain valuable time and resources.

In addition to his work with Innosight, Scott has written numerous books, including The First Mile: A Launch Manual for Getting Great Ideas Into the Market and The Little Black Book of Innovation.
