Innovation is not something that should be limited to one team or department in an organization. Innovation is also not something that should be a risky gamble that cannot be evaluated or reproduced. That’s why we need innovation that’s driven by science and data, and operating systems that allow for constant, continual innovation. And Doug Hall is just the expert to speak on this topic.   Doug Hall is one of the founders of Eureka Ranch Innovation Engineering Institute and Brain Brew Whiskey. He has been named one of America’s top innovation experts, and his latest book, Driving Eureka! Problem Solving with Data Driven Methods & the Innovation Engineering System dives deep into data-driven innovation and how to get everyone in the organization innovating all the time.   We discuss why the current systems most organizations have in place aren’t helping innovation — because they’re designed to control rather than to enable. Doug speaks to the importance of data-driven innovation, and why addressing variation in data through experimentation leads to successful innovation. We also dive Doug’s concept of meaningfully unique innovation, the importance of language and framing when discussing ideas, and how to bridge the gap between what the data tells you and what you can do with that information. So, are you being bold or are you being risky in your innovation?   If you are ready to: get buy-in from key decision makers on your next big idea be a high-impact, high-value member that ignites change foster a culture of innovation where everyone on your team is bringing innovative ideas that tackle challenges and seize opportunities… Join us on LaunchStreet — gotolaunchstreet.com   Mentioned in This Episode: Sponsor: Brillity Digital — Digital Presence Assessment Offer Doug Hall Driving Eureka!

Doug is a compulsive experimenter, he measures the results and then innovates based on the results. Doug is just a curious guy. He started his first business at the age of 12 just to see if he could do it. Everything he has done is driven by genuine curiosity. When he tried something to make money, it always failed, but when he approached things from a point of curiosity it always worked much better. Creativity Systems Doug has measured over 9000 teams in an effort to learn what allows people to create more meaningful ideas. The first thing is stimulus, people think that to get good ideas they need to sit in an empty room and the ideas will come, but that’s the last thing you should do. You create a system of gathering stimulus together to get your mind to react off of and create new ideas. The second thing is diversity in view points. When you combine people with diverse perspectives that trust each other, you get an exponential effect on the creativity of the group. The third thing is fear. Fear is the creativity killer so trust is very important, the key to driving out fear is to use data to build your confidence. Big corporations are usually more interested in getting a big idea given to them than having their team taught how to generate big ideas. We don’t believe in our people and we have to believe in our people to create great things. A team can’t win with just one all star. People are typically hired because they are innovative and creative but then they are told to just do what they are told. As a leader, it’s your job to set the vision and then give your team the training and tools to do the job. Innovation Engineering and Inventing New Things Doug made the conscious decision to become an inventor. He ended up working a Proctor and Gamble for ten years in an inventing centered role and set a lot of records at the company. Doug’s rule is simple, every six months ask yourself the question “am I smarter now than I was before?” If not, it’s time to move on. After getting fed up seeing ideas get killed by the corporate bureaucracy, Doug went into academia and created Innovative Engineering programs that have gone on to teach 35,000 people how to create better ideas. When ideas go into the development system in most organizations they will lose half their value because people will compromise. Ideas get killed as they go through the bureaucracy because the teams are fighting each other instead of working together. Being data driven is the solution to driving out fear. So much of our society teaches kids that they aren’t or can’t be creative. There are a lot of habits that need to be unlearned if you want to innovate. Reference: Driving Eureka!

In our second interview podcast of November 2018, Doug Hall provides an overview of his latest book, “Driving Eureka!: Problem-Solving with Data-Driven Methods & the Innovation Engineering System” (This is Tripp's third interview with Doug.  Link here for the first interview and here for the second.) Highlights include: Inventing “big ideas” for clients, as they entered the “Killing Zone” Applied innovation, using the Deming Philosophy How to “Find, Filter, and Fast-Track” big ideas Happy clients, paying big money, but the ideas did not happen Half the potential value of the big ideas is lost in internal development efforts The independent parts of organizations work to promote their own silo The average new product idea has a 95% failure rate in the market place What's wrong with project management? Innovation projects have uncertainty Problem solving with data-driven methods Big ideas are easy – making them real is hard A major obstacle is a reliance on opinions vs data Shifting innovation from an art to a science What to take away from this book? All products follow a life cycle, from birth to death Innovation for extending product life How to create an innovation culture Innovate or die Obstacles to innovation – Lack of Leadership and Lack of a Process Brain Brew Whiskeys for mass customization Don't feel you need to do "all" of the Deming Philosophy Just get started!
