🔧 Innovation Doesn’t Have to Be Perfect 🔧 A simple wooden block taught us a valuable lesson: Focus on functionality and real-world usability first. Early user feedback drives better results than chasing perfection. ✨ How does your team gather user feedback in product development? 👉 Need support?

Are you listening? I love tools! Machining tools, business tools, or lean manufacturing tools, I am a fan of them. They seemingly make things just more tangible and are something you can point to that has a direct output when used properly. They make our lives easier and many times you can put a direct value on them. They are great! One problem with tools though, is that when used wrong they can be pretty useless and may even have an adverse effect on the work you are trying to get done. This lesson I have had to learn the hard way. Something I have recently seen play out first hand and am beginning to focus more on, is to use the tools that almost everyone is equipped with, our ears. I know that probably comes off cliche and that I have probably heard this a million times throughout my career and always felt like I was listening. However, it has only been the past several years where I have found myself intentionally slowing down what I am doing to focus on listening to those around me. Listening to our employees, not to correct them or to simply answer them but more to truly understand them. Understand what is bugging them, what they are struggling with whether work related or not. Listening is the perfect example of a tool that we all think we are using properly, but when we take a step back and really analyze and look at the results are we really listening? *Note: Photo from a 5S exercise we did after employees were complaining we did not have enough tool holders. These were all the tools and tool holders that were laying in different areas of the facility or sitting in a machine not being used. The problem was not that we did not have enough tool holders, the problem was the employees did not know where the tool holders were.

"#Innovation thrives on the 'known unknowns'—it's about embracing #uncertainties to discover breakthroughs." 🤔

✨ Why People Are the Key to Innovation ✨ Innovation isn’t about tools or processes—it’s powered by people. When businesses focus on listening, engaging, and developing their teams, they unlock their true potential for growth and success. 💡 As Bob Chapman said in Everybody Matters: "Businesses should take care of their people, and in turn, they will drive innovation and growth." 👉 How does your organization prioritize people in its culture of innovation?
