Find a Champion
New series starting today! What if you are more of an analyst, or software developer, less so the trailblazing #champion or #intrapreneur? What should you do to help drive innovation? 🤔
In advance of our sessions at #ClarisEngage at Apple's offices in Austin TX, here are a few ideas for how you can charge up your innovation leadership game:
1. Find a #Champion.
That’s right! If you know that you are not naturally aligned with #intrapreneurship, simply start by finding an Intrapreneur to follow.
You’ve heard it said that certain teams struggle with a lack of leadership. We’ve certainly also all been on teams that lack #followership!
(And if no one is following, is anyone actually leading? 🤷)
———————————
Here are some concrete steps to take before you kickoff your next big idea:
✅ Identify an internal champion willing to trail-blaze innovation with you
✅ Generate ideas, prototype solutions before you get approval and budget
✅ Determine the level of best fit with corporate mission, vision
✅ Assess other initiatives already in progress and how that might compete
✅ Identify an executive sponsor to get behind it
✅ Build your team of supporters
Don’t have your tickets yet? Still time to join in Austin March 25th.
Part 2 coming soon! Thank you. 🙏
