    The “single-speed pool pump ban” gets repeated so often it starts to sound like settled law, but the real story is more interesting and a lot more useful if you own a pool or service them. We break down what the Department of Energy (DOE) pool pump regulations actually do, how the Weighted Energy Factor (WEF) works, and why the rule feels like a ban even when it isn't written as a simple prohibition. The biggest shift is product availability: most manufacturers stopped making higher-horsepower single-speed pumps because they can't hit the required energy efficiency levels.We also dig into the part that doesn't get talked about enough: programming. A variable speed pool pump can still run at full RPM, so the regulation alone doesn't magically force lower energy use. The real savings come from smart run schedules that keep circulation steady at low speed, then step up only when you need more flow for a cleaner, spa jets, or water features. We share practical RPM ranges we use and explain why WEF-based savings assume lower-speed operation in the first place.If your current 1.5 or 2 HP single-speed pump fails, we walk through your best replacement options without guesswork: replacing the whole pump with a modern VS model, swapping in a variable speed replacement motor on the existing wet end, and why downsizing to 1 HP can backfire when the pool was built for higher demand. We also touch on commercial pool exemptions, turnover requirements, and what “compliance” looks like in the real world.If this helped clear up the confusion, subscribe, share the episode with a pool owner or pool pro, and leave a review so more people can find it. What pump are you running right now, and what's your biggest question about upgrading to variable speed?We tackle the myth that single-speed pool pumps are “banned” nationwide and explain what the DOE energy rules actually target through the WEF efficiency standard. We also get practical about replacement choices, VS pump programming, and why most homeowners save more by changing how the pump runs than by fighting for an old-style model.  • what DOE regulations really say versus what people assume  • how WEF energy efficiency ratings squeeze out most single-speed pumps above 1 HP  • why you can still buy some single-speed pumps and why big ones are getting scarce  • when a higher-horsepower single-speed might still be sold for water features  • why variable speed pumps can still waste power if programmed poorly  • realistic RPM ranges that balance turnover, cleaners, and lower electric bills  • why you should not downsize a 1.5 or 2 HP setup without understanding pool needs  • swap a VS motor onto an existing pump versus replacing the whole unit  • commercial pool turnover rules and why full-speed operation can still be required  • what to tell customers about longer run time with lower total energy cost  Join the pool guy coaching program.

    Killer Innovations: Successful Innovators Talking About Creativity, Design and Innovation | Hosted by Phil McKinney

    Recognizing failure patterns is the closest thing an innovator has to seeing the future.   If you can recognize the patterns, you can change the future, because most failures are not original. They repeat, and that repetition is the pattern: the same handful of patterns reappearing in one organization after another, decade after decade.   This one stings a little.   In 2011, Bill Geiser told me, almost word for word, how the project we had spent the past two years building was going to fail. He saw the pattern before I did; I heard him say it, and I never forgot it.   The failure still happened.   This is not a pre-mortem. A pre-mortem imagines new ways your plan could fail. Recognizing failure patterns means learning from failures that have already happened elsewhere and spotting the early signals before you repeat them, while there is still time to act.   By the end of this episode, you will have four patterns in your own library, a five-minute way to check any project against them, and the four steps to take when you find one.   Let's get into it. The Smartwatch We Killed In 2004, Fossil hired a watch-technology executive named Bill Geiser to help build innovative technology for their watches. A few years later, he and I started spending real time together, me as HP's CTO, him running watch technology at Fossil. Between us, we had an idea we both believed in: a connected wearable, years before anyone used that phrase, co-innovated by HP and Fossil, with each bringing its expertise.   Fossil named the resulting platform the MetaWatch. It ran an ultra-low-power processor with a 96 by 96 display, an accelerometer, and Bluetooth. It was designed to last a week on a charge, and it shipped with a full developer kit so anyone could build apps for it. We revealed the partnership in March 2011, at an HP event in China. And between us, we had the one thing Apple did not have in 2011: distribution. HP held roughly ten percent of consumer-electronics shelf space. Fossil sold through twenty thousand retail stores that carried its watches.   Bill saw the ending before anyone. He told me in 2011: "Phil, I wouldn't be shocked if Apple evolved the Nano to take advantage of this space. They'll legitimize it in consumers' minds worldwide."   So the man building the watch spotted the failure in advance, out loud. And naming it changed nothing.   The signs kept arriving in plain sight. HP went through three CEOs in thirteen months. In August 2011, Leo Apotheker killed HP's consumer mobile strategy and WebOS, which removed the platform that made a smartwatch matter to HP at all. The battery lasted three to four hours against the original target of a week. We ran month-long approval cycles for changes that startups could implement in days.   Then I went out on medical leave. When I came back six weeks later, HP had killed Palm, WebOS, and the connected wearable project.   Here is what the ignored warning turned into. The Apple Watch shipped in April 2015. It sold 4.2 million units in its first quarter, and by that fall Apple was selling three out of every four smartwatches on the planet. The market we walked away from grew from three hundred thousand units in 2012 to forty-five million by 2018, and Apple held fifty-one percent of the market share.   The idea was never the hard part. It never is. The hard part is committing. What Recognizing Failure Patterns Means Nothing that killed the MetaWatch was new, and none of the signals were faint. They were loud; they were ignored, and each one was a pattern that has killed projects for decades.   Recognizing failure patterns has two halves. The first is building a library of how failures repeat. The second is matching the situation in front of you against that library, and forcing what you find into an actual decision while the fix is still cheap. Bill did the first half. Neither of our companies did the second, and the gap between those halves is where the Apple Watch came from.   Here are four entries for your library, straight from this one failure. Each one ends with a test question. By the end, you will have a four-question checklist, and then I will show you what to do when a pattern shows up. Pattern 1: Success Protects Itself Fossil's traditional watch business grew from $950 million in 2004 to $3.25 billion by 2013. It was tripling while we were building the thing that might replace it, and that growth made cannibalizing it politically impossible. Fossil never had to kill the MetaWatch outright. Fossil positioned the watch as a two-hundred-dollar development platform, something no ordinary customer would ever be handed at a retail counter.   When we constrain what we're innovating so it doesn't risk the present, we've lost the future.   Test it: Is the new thing priced, staffed, or positioned so that it cannot hurt the current thing? If the answer is yes, this pattern is already running. Pattern 2: The Warning That Changes Nothing Bill's warning was specific, early, and exactly right, and it still changed nothing. I heard it directly, and hearing is not the same as deciding: nobody re-ran the plan with "Apple arrives and legitimizes the category" as an input, no roadmap changed, and no budget moved.   Test it: What decision changed after the warning? If the honest answer is none, the warning was never acted on, no matter how many people remember hearing it. Pattern 3: The Problem Nobody Owns A week of battery life was the MetaWatch's central promise, and it shipped at three to four hours. Both companies saw the gap. No one owned fixing it. The hardest problem on the project sat on the seam between two companies, and problems that sit on seams get reported, tracked, and carried forward without ever belonging to anyone who can be asked why the problem is still there. We ran that partnership for two years and never settled whose job it was to lose sleep over the one number that mattered most.   Test it: Who owns the hardest problem, by name? If the answer is a partnership, a committee, or a pause, then nobody owns it. Pattern 4: The Pace Mismatch Earlier, I shared that we ran month-long approval cycles for changes a startup could implement in days. That is a pacing problem: the organization's internal pace versus the market's. A smartwatch in 2011 was a fast-moving product running through slow-moving machinery, and no amount of talent inside the project could close that gap. The delay was structural, not personal.   Test it: How long does one small change take to approve, against how fast the market moves? Time a real one. Do not estimate it. Five Minutes on a Project That Died The four patterns are the start of your library. Before you use it on a live decision, test it on a dead one.   You have a dead project in your past. Everybody does. Pick the one that still stings and give it five minutes against the four test questions.   Was an existing success being protected while the project starved, in pricing, staffing, or positioning? Did people raise a warning, and what decision changed after it was said? Who owned the hardest problem, and can you name the person? And how long did a small change take to approve, against how fast the market was moving?   When I run the MetaWatch through those four questions, I find all four patterns. Your project will probably show fewer. Every pattern you find is one you will now recognize as it happens on the project you are working on right now. The Four Steps When You Spot a Failure Pattern Which brings up the harder half of the skill, because recognition alone did not save us. Suppose you had been standing next to me in 2011, holding all four of these patterns. It would not have been enough. Being right about the future means nothing without the organizational machinery to act on that insight.   So when a failure pattern appears on a live project, follow this sequence.   Step one: Say the failure pattern out loud, in the room where the decision lives. Not in the hallway afterward. Use the pattern's name.   Step two: Get it onto the decision memo. A warning that lives only in conversation changes nothing. Write the pattern and what it costs into a document that will drive a decision.   Step three: Attach an owner. If you identify a critical problem, assign it to one person. Not a team or an organization. Someone you can ask next sprint why the problem is still there.   Step four: Attach a date. Being early provides an advantage, and a failure pattern without a date on it fades unnoticed.   Bill was right for four years, and Apple was the one who acted on it. That could have been us if we'd had the organizational courage to back our vision with meaningful resources. Conclusion You now have what nobody handed me in 2011: four patterns of failure, a five-minute check, and the four steps to run when you spot one. What you do in the room where the decision lives is the part Bill's warning never got.

    Killer Innovations: Successful Innovators Talking About Creativity, Design and Innovation | Hosted by Phil McKinney

    Sherlock Holmes never once used deduction.   Open any of the stories and watch what he actually does. He notices a tan line on a wrist or mud dried on a boot and leaps to the best-fitting explanation. Then he went looking for evidence. Deduction guarantees its conclusions. What Holmes did was guess. He was better at it than everyone around him because he treated guessing as a discipline.   The discipline of guessing is one of the most useful thinking skills nobody ever taught you.   Let's get into it. What Is Abductive Reasoning? There are three kinds of reasoning. School taught you two of them.   Deduction moves from a general rule to a specific conclusion. For example, all mammals have hearts. Dogs are mammals. So dogs have hearts. If the starting statements are true, the conclusion must be true.   Induction goes the other way, from specific observations to a general pattern. For example, if you see a thousand white swans, you conclude all swans are white. Probably right, but never guaranteed. Europeans believed exactly that until they reached Australia and found black swans. I covered both in an earlier episode on logical reasoning skills.   Abduction is the third kind, the one school skipped, and it runs reasoning backward. You start at the far end, with the result or fact in front of you, then you work back to whatever would explain it. For example, the lawn is wet at six in the morning. You didn't see it rain, and nothing rules out a broken sprinkler. But rain explains it best, so you accept it for now and get on with your day.   Notice that you did that without deciding to. You are running abductive reasoning constantly, on faces and sales numbers and to explain the silence after you finish talking in a meeting. We all leap from evidence to an explanation and then treat the explanation as fact. You already know how to do this. What you don't have is the habit of catching yourself at it and doing it deliberately when it matters.   Now go back to Holmes. In A Study in Scarlet, the first thing he ever does on the page is shake hands with a stranger and say, "You have been in Afghanistan, I perceive." Holmes explains it later. The man had a medical look but a soldier's bearing. His face was dark, but his wrists were fair, so the tan came from somewhere hot. His left arm hung stiffly, so it had been injured. None of those clues proves anything on its own. Holmes asked which single story would cover them all: an army doctor, wounded and sent home from the Afghan war. That is abduction, not deduction, and Conan Doyle used the wrong word for it his entire career. Why AI Can't Do Abductive Reasoning Abduction is the only one of the three that creates a new idea. Deduction draws out what was already inside the starting statements, and induction stretches a pattern you already saw. That difference used to be a philosopher's distinction. It matters now because AI has gotten very good at the other two. AI finds patterns in billions of examples and extends them, induction at a scale no human can match. What it cannot reliably do is face a fact that fits no pattern and come up with an explanation worth betting on. That leap is still uniquely human, and the people who make it well are getting more valuable every year.   Meanwhile, abduction as a skill is getting harder to keep, because search engines and chatbots now answer most questions in under a minute, and abduction doesn't work that way. It asks you to live with "probably" for a while, holding an answer you know might be wrong and working anyway. How to Improve Your Abductive Reasoning Skills None of this is a talent you either have or don't have. Watch a good doctor or a talented designer at work, and you will see the same four moves. Each one can be practiced. 1. Notice What Doesn't Fit In 1847, a Hungarian doctor named Ignaz Semmelweis ran a maternity clinic in Vienna. It had two wards, one staffed by doctors and one by midwives, and in the doctors' ward new mothers were dying of fever at three times the rate. Some women gave birth in the street rather than be admitted, and the street births survived at a better rate.   Everyone was ignoring the numbers. Semmelweis treated the numbers as the question. What could explain the best-trained people in the hospital losing the most patients? His answer came when a colleague cut his finger during an autopsy and died of the same fever. Doctors went from dissecting corpses straight to delivering babies. Midwives never touched corpses. He ordered handwashing in chlorine, and the deaths collapsed decades before anyone had heard of germ theory.   Charles Sanders Peirce, the philosopher who gave the skill its name, built that noticing into his own definition of abduction. The surprising fact is observed, he wrote, and only then does the search for an explanation begin. When something fits what you already believe, we accept it without noticing. Surprise is the alarm that the automatic version has failed. It means the failure that matters happens before any of the reasoning starts. The risk is that you cannot explain a surprise you never see. We have spent years learning to rationalize them away.   When reality does something you didn't predict, write it down before you talk yourself out of it. 2. Generate More Than One Explanation Last week I told you about the chrome-looking keyboard snafu. An HP laptop was running below plan, and none of the data would say why. Before anybody knew about the keyboard, I asked the product team what they thought was happening.   I got three answers. It needs more memory. It needs a bigger hard drive. It needs longer battery life. Each one arrived with a competitor's machine held up beside ours. That one has more memory. That one has the bigger drive. Every comparison was accurate, and each one had been picked because it supported the answer.   Three explanations sounded like the work was done. All three said the same thing: that we were losing on specifications, which is what the team was already organized to believe. None of the explanations would have sent someone into a store on a Saturday to watch a customer make the purchase decision.   So when you catch a genuine surprise, run it through this sequence instead:   State the surprise in one sentence. "Sales dropped 15% in a quarter when we improved the product." If you can't state it cleanly, you don't yet know what you're explaining. Force at least three explanations. The third is usually where the thinking starts, because the first two are the ones everybody already believes. Include one explanation you don't want to be true. If every explanation on your list flatters you and your team, the list isn't finished. Write down what each explanation would predict. If A is true, what else should you be able to see? That turns a guess into something you can check. 3. Choose the Best Explanation, Not the First One Philosophers call abduction "inference to the best explanation," and the key word is "best." Best doesn't mean first, and it rarely means the cleverest.   The one you want covers the most facts while assuming the least. Then, before you commit, decide what evidence would make you drop it. A doctor hearing chest pain does this out loud, ruling out the dangerous explanation first even when she expects it to be something ordinary. 4. Hold It Loosely and Test It Cheaply The best explanation is still a bet, nothing stronger. The moment you forget the word "bet," the skill starts working against you. Many will make a sharp abductive leap, fall in love with it, and then spend six months protecting it instead of testing it.   Designers handle this better than almost anyone. A prototype is an abductive test, the cheapest way to let the world argue with your guess before you commit real money. Whatever your field, find your version of the prototype. Good innovators are wrong as often as everyone else. They just find out sooner, and it costs them less.  Try This Before Friday Think of the last thing at work that went differently than you expected. A deal that died, a number that moved the wrong way, a good person who quit. You already have an explanation for it. Notice how fast it came. Somebody asked what happened, and you had an answer before they finished the question, and everyone nodded, because it was reasonable, and reasonable answers end conversations.   Go back to it this week. Not to find out whether you were right, because you were probably close enough. Go back because two other explanations fit those same facts and you never considered either one. Find them, and make one something you would rather not be true.   Then find the smallest test that would tell them apart. A phone call. One question to somebody who was in the room. It is almost never expensive, and that is the part worth sitting with, because it means the answer has been sitting there the whole time and nobody went and got it. Conclusion Abductive reasoning is how new ideas enter the world, and Holmes made a career of it under the wrong name. The more leaps you make and test, the sharper the next one gets.

    Killer Innovations: Successful Innovators Talking About Creativity, Design and Innovation | Hosted by Phil McKinney

    Think about the last thing you almost bought and did not. You picked it up, you looked at it, you put it back down. You had a reason for choosing one item over its competitors, and you know exactly what it was. Did anybody ever ask you why you didn't choose the loser? Of course not. And somebody did the same thing to you this week. Something you made, or wrote, or suggested. An idea you put into a meeting that got a polite nod and then went nowhere. They considered it, decided against it, and you never found out the real reason. Almost everything that comes back to you comes from the people who said yes. Inside a business, the machinery makes that official. Satisfaction surveys go to people who have bought. Reviews come from people who have bought. The customer list is a list of people who have bought. The one who put it back down is invisible to all of it, and that person is holding the answer. So, where do you point a question to reach somebody who is not there? Last week, we took a question apart and rebuilt it. But a well-made question aimed at the wrong thing comes back empty. Where you point a question is the other half of the skill. Forty-two cards of Killer Questions A killer question is one that has been tested and proven to spark ideas beyond the obvious. The name comes from the old phrase "killer app," where "killer" meant standout, not lethal. I built this collection of questions the slow way. I designed structured tests into my innovation workshops, which I was running: specific questions put to specific groups, and a record of what each produced. The rule for keeping a question was that it had to trigger something in that room. Did somebody walk out seeing their customer, their product, or the way they work differently than when they walked in? If nothing moved, the question was cut. If there was a good idea underneath one and I had simply worded it badly, I rewrote it and ran it again in another workshop. There were hundreds of questions, and most did not survive. Forty-two did. When I sorted the survivors, they fell into three groups. Not by subject. By where they aim your thinking.  Three places to aim Every question in the deck points to one of three things. Who, what, and how. WHO is the person or organization who will benefit from what you make. Usually, your customer, though the gap between "usually" and "always" is where a lot of new business hides. WHAT is the product, the service, the solution that creates the value for the WHO. HOW is the way your organization builds, delivers, and supports the WHAT for the WHO. Three places an idea can come from, and the questions exist to send you into each one on purpose rather than by accident. The cards all say "product." Read that as whatever you make for somebody else. A service counts. So does a proposal you hand to your boss. Thirteen of my cards aim at WHO. Thirteen at WHAT. Sixteen at HOW. That split was never a plan. It is where the questions that kept surviving pointed, and eventually, I stopped arguing with it. WHO What are your unshakable beliefs about what your customers want? The phone companies believed their customers wanted reliability above all else, and they were right. For a century, they built toward 99.999 percent uptime. A dial tone that worked in a storm, in a power failure, always. Then somebody turned that belief over and looked at it with no assumptions about what the customer wanted. Where were there people who would give up call quality for something else? That is the question that led to voice over IP, a phone call carried over the internet. In the early days, it sounded terrible. Calls dropped. By the standard the old industry had spent a century perfecting, VoIP was not a serious product. But underneath it sat an idea nobody in that industry had allowed themselves to consider: that many people would trade call quality for price and mobility, and would do so happily. They did. That market opportunity existed before anyone built it, waiting for someone willing to challenge the old standard on its head.  WHAT What is surprisingly inconvenient about my product? It does not ask whether the product is good. Your team will defend that all day, and they will be partly right, which will only make the conversation worse. Surprisingly inconvenient means some part of using your product that nobody inside your company has ever seen a real person struggle with. The fifteen minutes with the instructions. The step everyone on your team skips automatically because they built the thing. On the back of that card sits the shortest useful question I own: "Do you use your own product yourself?" Hold on to this one. In a few minutes, it turns up at a Best Buy, and the strange part is that I wasn't aiming at it when I found it. HOW What do people not like about the buying experience for my product? For the whole time I was CTO at HP, I spent nearly every Saturday in a Best Buy. While traveling, I found a local electronics store in whatever country I was in. I was not shopping. I was standing in the aisle watching strangers choose, because this question has no other answer. You cannot survey somebody who did not buy.  My family called it my "digital stalking". My kids would have done almost anything else rather than be seen with me in a Best Buy on a Saturday. When somebody picked up a competitor's product and headed for the checkout, I would walk over, introduce myself, and ask what made them choose that one. I did it long enough that the sales staff around Silicon Valley knew me, and would change how they talked to a customer if they saw me standing there. Stay somewhere long enough, and you stop being an observer. You influence what you are measuring. Then came the Saturday that changed a product. A customer set down an HP laptop and bought a competitor's. I asked him why. He told me he could not see the keys. This was during the stretch when every laptop was going aluminum, and somebody in our laptop group had given ours a chrome-looking keyboard. High gloss. On a store shelf, it looked expensive, which is exactly what it was designed to do. It also meant that anyone whose eyesight had started to go could not read the letters on it. Sales on that product had been running under plan, and nothing in the data said why. We changed the keyboard back to matte black with high contrast white lettering. Sales went up on that one change. No survey would have revealed the issue. By the time he told me, he was already somebody else's customer. Notice what that question actually turned up. I went into the store carrying a HOW question about the buying experience. What came back was a WHAT answer, something surprisingly. Inconvenient about the product itself. You choose where to aim. You do not choose where the answer comes from. Testing for Great Questions How do you find and test great questions? Ask the question, then watch what happens in the next four seconds. If the room goes quiet, and then somebody says, "Hang on," you are holding a good one. That pause is the sound of a person arriving somewhere they have not been. You just unleashed a great question. If someone answers immediately and confidently, the question isn't that great. A fast answer means you aimed where the team has already been, and they are reciting. I threw away hundreds that way and got down to the questions that caused impact. Practice Exercise  Take a decision you are facing this month and give it ninety minutes. Start with whichever of the three you are least comfortable with, which for most people is HOW. Take a question from it at random. Do not hunt for the one you like, because the one you like is the one you have already answered. Set a timer for thirty minutes and write down every idea that question produces. No judging, no editing, just quantity. Then do the same thing with a question aimed at your customer, and again with one aimed at the product. When you have worked through all three, read back over everything and pick the best three ideas to start on. That is how you run it on your own. If you would rather do it with a team, there is a second version designed for groups of 4 to 6 people. Both are written out step by step on killerquestions.com, so you are not working from memory. You can buy the deck at innovation.tools, either as printed cards or as a digital download for your phone, tablet, or PC.  Send me the question that worked best for you. I am also still on the search for new questions for volume 2 of the card deck. Send your suggestions, and they might just be included. That closes out this three-part series on questions. If you came in at the end, part one is about why you cannot stop yourself from answering a question, and part two is about how a single word inside a question steers the answer you get back. The next episode is about abductive thinking. Deduction hands you a conclusion you can prove. Induction hands you a pattern you can bet on. Abduction is what you reach for when you have neither and still have to decide, which is most of the time. It is how a doctor arrives at a diagnosis, and it is how most real innovation actually happens. Subscribe wherever you watch or listen, and you will get that one when it lands.

    Killer Innovations: Successful Innovators Talking About Creativity, Design and Innovation | Hosted by Phil McKinney

    In 1974, a psychologist named Elizabeth Loftus showed a group of people a film of a car accident. Afterward, she asked half the group one question: how fast were the cars going when they hit each other? The other half got the same question with a single word swapped: smashed instead of hit. The smashed group estimated higher speeds. Same film. Same crash. One word.   A week later, everyone came back and answered a new question: Did you see broken glass? There was no broken glass in the film. The smashed group remembered it anyway. One word inside one question changed what people reported seeing. Then it reached back and rewrote what they remembered. Somebody did this to you this week. A question steered your answer, and you never noticed. Last week, I showed you that your brain cannot refuse a question. You hear one, you start answering, whether you agreed to or not. This week is the other side of that power. If every question forces an answer, then how the question is built decides which answer you get back. Questions have an anatomy. Almost nobody looks at it. Before we're done, a motorcycle taxi in Bangkok is going to show you what a question built right can find.  Let's get into it. ===== Every question you ask carries three things, whether you put them there on purpose or not. It carries assumptions, the things it treats as already settled. Ask "Why did the launch fail?" and you've ruled the launch a failure before anyone speaks.   It carries scope, the range of answers it permits. "Coffee or tea?" permits exactly two answers. "What should we drink?" opens the room.   And it carries a load, the specific words that steer the answer. That's what "smashed" did. Nobody in that study felt steered. The steering is invisible to the person answering, and most of the time to the person asking too.   Once you see the parts, you can take any question apart. Take "why did the launch fail?" one more time: it assumes failure before anyone answers, its scope is only explanations, and "fail" is the loaded word doing the steering. Hold on to that one; we'll rebuild it later. Let's start with the ones built to do damage. The worst question in business "That presentation was fantastic, wasn't it?" That's a tag question: a statement dressed up as a question, built so every answer is closed off except agreement. The person asking isn't really asking, not in any way that risks hearing something different. They're collecting a signature. When lawyers use them in court, it's called leading the witness. When managers use them in conference rooms, it's called alignment. Tag questions did damage for years at HP, in the design reviews, every product went through before customer briefings. One review was for a prototype, one of our first laptops in what's now called the "thin and light" category. The product team wanted to lead that category without straying too far from what already sold. That's the tradeoff tag questions live in. Nobody wants to sound negative about it. So the pushback arrived dressed as agreement: "We'll still have four USB ports, right?" You don't get thin and light with a case full of legacy ports, and the designer knew it. I watched the exasperation cross his face. Before it became a battle, I stepped in and rebuilt the question: "What's the right mix of ports for this segment, and why?" Then: "Have we tested that mix with the target customers?" The answer came back fast. "No need. We know what the customer wants." I nearly smacked my forehead. One rebuilt question had uncovered the real problem, and it wasn't ports. It was an untested assumption sitting in the middle of a flagship product plan. That's what tag questions cost you. The entire point of asking a question is to get information, input, or ideas. A tag question collects compliance instead. Enough of them, and people stop bringing you anything you don't already believe. The two kinds of good questions Real questions are split into two categories: factual and investigative. A factual question retrieves information. How many units did we sell last week? You may not know the answer, but you know exactly how to get it: one phone call. Factual questions keep the world running. They just can't uncover anything because they only retrieve what somebody already knows. An investigative question can't be answered with a yes, a no, or a lookup. It's divergent: more than one correct answer exists, so the person answering has to go investigate. You felt this difference last week. "What is half of thirteen?" is a factual question. "How many ways could you answer: what is half of thirteen?" is an investigative question. One is arithmetic. The other is the one that a classroom answered thirty-two different ways. Socrates built his entire way of teaching on investigative questions, pushing every student past "I've heard it said that..." until they could say what they themselves thought, and why. The first step toward knowledge, he insisted, is admitting yours is incomplete. So here's the definition I've worked from for years. A great question makes the other person genuinely think before they answer, and it surfaces an insight that had been eluding them. Both halves matter. The first half costs you real effort. The second half is the payoff: you see something you've been looking at for years and never actually seen, and it surfaces possibilities you'd never have found on your own. How to build one How I build them is with four moves, in the order I use them. You already watched three of them work in that design review. Strip the answer out. Read your question and find the smuggled conclusion. "Right?" and "wasn't it?" come off first. Then the buried assumptions. "Why did the launch fail?" becomes "what happened when we launched?"   Open the exits. If it can be answered with yes, no, or a single lookup, it's factual. That's fine when information is all you need. When you want discovery, rebuild it until more than one correct answer exists. The rebuild is usually small. "Should we do this?" becomes "what are the ways this could work, and what are the ways it dies?"   Weigh every word. This is Loftus's lesson. "How do we make this cheaper?" and "what happens if we triple the price?" point at the same product, and they will never produce the same ideas. There is no neutral wording. Every word carries load, so choose it deliberately instead of inheriting it.   Aim it where nobody is looking. If you can already predict the answer, the question is just decoration. Point it at something unexamined: the assumption everyone stopped checking, the customer nobody ever talks to. A great question should surprise you.   What a well-built question uncovers Late 1994, Bangkok. Half an hour stuck in traffic, twenty-eight minutes until a critical meeting. At eighteen minutes, I gave up, jumped out of the limo, and hailed a motorcycle taxi. 125ccs of terror, flat out through the heat, my briefcase clutched to my chest. Somewhere between the tuk-tuks, I started thinking about the machine underneath me. Cheap, efficient transportation. The streets were flooded with them. And on the other side of the world, Harley-Davidson was selling motorcycles as big-ticket luxury. A product that began as cheap transportation for the American working man had become a premium item that people waited months for. In that evolution, somebody had to ask a question like this: What if we stop trying to make this cheaper and go the other way? Everything needed to see that opportunity had been lying in plain sight for decades, waiting for someone to ask for it. That's the payoff of this craft. The next discovery in your business is probably sitting in an assumption nobody's checked in years, waiting on the right question to find it. Practice Exercise: Before your next meeting, write down the one question you most need to ask, exactly as you'd naturally say it. Then take it apart on paper. What does it assume? What answers does it permit? Which words are steering, and in what direction? Rebuild it with the four moves and ask for the rebuilt version instead. Pay attention to what comes back that the original never would have surfaced. Conclusion This is part 2 of a three-part series on questions as the skill behind better thinking, better ideas, and better innovation. Next in on the specific questions I spent twenty years collecting and testing, the ones that reliably uncover what everyone else misses. Full show notes for this episode are up at philmckinney.com.

    HP has unveiled one of its most expansive collaboration announcements in years at InfoComm 2026 – spanning headsets, video conferencing hardware, intelligent cameras, and a platform play that reframes how IT teams think about meeting room management.At the heart of it all is a concept Greg Baribault, VP of Product and Portfolio Management, calls ambient technology. “We want the conference controller, the microphones, the displays and cameras to just disappear,” he explains.“The room makes smart decisions so people can focus on what they're there to do – have a meeting, have a discussion, have impact.”That vision is being driven by AI across the entire portfolio. On the software side, HP is integrating Poly Lens into its Workforce Experience Platform (WXP) – a move designed to shift the conversation for IT from device management to workforce productivity. Room Visualiser AI exemplifies the ambition: walk into a space, take a few photos, and the platform detects room dimensions, chair count, window placement and recommends the right camera and microphone setup automatically.On the hardware side, the new Studio Room Compute brings a Windows-based MTR and Zoom Rooms system built specifically for integrators, complete with magnetic backplane, colour-coded ports, and a 50 TOPS NPU for edge AI processing. Alongside it, VideoOS 5.1 introduces DirectorAI – multi-camera switching that tracks where participants are looking in real time, ensuring the right face is always in frame.But perhaps the announcement Baribault is most eager to talk about is the Poly Focus 6 headset series. Lightweight, foldable, with swappable ear cushions and a discreet boom mic, it's designed to look as good on camera as it sounds. “It's beautiful,” he says simply. Hard to argue.With WXP managing devices across multiple vendors and AI embedded at every layer, HP's message at InfoComm is clear: the era of fiddling with meeting room tech should be over.

Newt tells how that changed in 1975, when a $439 kit computer on the cover of Popular Electronics inspired a Harvard student named Bill Gates and an HP engineer named Steve Wozniak to imagine something radical: a computer anyone could own.

    268: How Paul Campbell Wrote the Playbook for Corporate Innovation

    Innovation Storytellers

    Play Episode Listen Later Jul 28, 2026 57:09


    What does it really take to turn bold ideas into billion-dollar businesses inside large enterprises? In this episode of the Innovation Storytellers Show, I'm joined by Paul Campbell, one of the world's leading experts on corporate innovation and co-author of The Corporate Innovator's Playbook. Over the course of his career, Paul has helped create more than 50 new businesses that have generated over $5 billion in growth while advising companies including Hewlett-Packard, Philips, Schneider Electric, Mercedes-Benz, and W.L. Gore. Our conversation moves beyond brainstorming and ideation to focus on the reality of making innovation succeed inside complex enterprises. Paul shares why so many innovation initiatives fail, why incremental thinking holds companies back, and what leaders can do to create an environment where bold ideas have a genuine chance to succeed. We also tackle one of the biggest questions facing business today. Is AI replacing corporate innovation, or is it creating the biggest opportunity innovation leaders have seen in years? Paul explains why most companies are still focused on using AI for efficiency while missing its greatest potential as a driver of entirely new products, business models, and sources of growth. One of my favorite moments is Paul's story from Hewlett-Packard, where CEO Carly Fiorina personally challenged her team to think bigger, breaking through organizational resistance and helping transform HP's position in the Chinese market. It's a powerful reminder that innovation succeeds when leadership creates the confidence to take meaningful risks. Throughout our conversation, Paul shares practical lessons from decades of helping global enterprises commercialize ideas, navigate internal resistance, and build innovation programs that deliver measurable business results. We discuss why corporate innovation needs a practical playbook rather than more theory, how AI is changing the role of innovation teams, why efficiency alone is not enough to deliver future growth, the importance of bold leadership and executive engagement, overcoming organizational barriers to innovation, building an innovation culture that encourages smart risk-taking, and using the Innovation Canvas to uncover the blind spots preventing companies from turning ideas into successful businesses. If you've ever wondered why some organizations consistently create new growth while others struggle to move beyond incremental improvements, this conversation offers valuable insights from someone who has spent decades helping some of the world's biggest companies make innovation work.

    Niall Dennehy's first bank account was opened in 1987, when his mother walked him ten metres from their front door to the credit union in Ballydesmond, Co. Cork — a branch named for Nora Herlihy, the local schoolteacher who helped found the Irish credit union movement. He still gets the statement every month. Nearly four decades on, having co-founded blockchain company AID:Tech and gone through Techstars, he's a father of four in Dublin building NestiFi: an AI-powered platform that lets whole families, wherever they've scattered, invest together in a child's future.In this conversation, we get into:The 1987 credit union account Niall still gets statements for, and how it became the blueprint for NestiFiWhy the cash-stuffed-envelope economy shortchanges kids, and how a tap in the family WhatsApp chat can put relatives anywhere in the world into a child's investment accountThe tax reliefs most Irish parents have never heard of, including the small gift exemption worth up to €108,000 per child over 18 years from parents aloneTrump accounts in the US, and Niall's lobbying push to get the Irish government to seed every newborn's account the same wayWhat 1–2% in annual fees quietly does to 30 years of compounding, and why credit unions are best placed to win back the next generation from Revolut and RobinhoodIf you're a parent, a grandparent, or anyone thinking about the next generation's financial future, this episode is a practical look at how families can start compounding early.$84 trillion is expected to change hands in the US over the next 20 years; roughly €3.5 trillion in Europe by 2030 (figures Niall cites on tape).$2,500 seeded at birth plus $75/month from the wider family ≈ $40,000 by age 18 and $106,871 by age 30 (NestiFi's illustration; assumes a 7.35% average annual return compounded monthly).Niall Dennehy is the CEO and co-founder of NestiFi. Originally from Ballydesmond, Co. Cork, he co-founded AID:Tech, the blockchain company that delivered international aid transparently through digital identity, and went through Techstars in 2016. His earlier career spanned publishing, education and fintech, including roles with HP, Ericsson, LG Mobile, AIB and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. He lives in Dublin with his wife and four children — the original test users for NestiFi. [Confirm bio with Niall — drafted from the recording and public sources; no formal bio provided.]NestiFi is a Dublin-headquartered, AI-powered family wealth platform that financial institutions deploy under their own brand. It lets parents, grandparents and relatives anywhere in the world contribute to a child's investment account from a link in the messaging apps families already use, with an AI advisor (“Seb”) and gamified financial literacy built in. A B2B2C play targeting credit unions and community banks on both sides of the Atlantic, NestiFi is backed by Enterprise Ireland as a High Potential Start-Up, closed a 108% oversubscribed crowdfunding round on Spark Venture Funding in July 2026, and has announced a partnership with Vyrdia, a credit union service organization whose network spans more than 30 US credit unions with $6.5 billion in combined assets.Want to get in contact with the Digital Irish team?

    AI is everywhere, but what business impact is it really making? In this episode, JJ Rorie talks with Faisal Masud, President of HP's Digital Services and Workforce Experience, about where AI is delivering clear ROI today, how it's reshaping product teams, and why “less is more” when it comes to headcount. They explore the shift from dashboards to intelligent nudges, the move from seat-based pricing to outcome-based value, and what it now means for product managers to think and operate like general managers.

    Edtech Throwdown Episode 220: 8 Lesson Ideas Inspired by Video GamesWelcome to the EdTech Throwdown. This is Episode 220 called 8 Lesson Ideas Inspired by Video Games. In this episode we'll break down some ways that you can leverage video games for creative lesson ideas. This can be a fun way to make your class more engaging and encourage student buy-in. This is another episode you don't want to miss, check it out.Segment 1:What might some of our listeners have more time for in the summer? Video games! I don't play them. Does Guise?Segment 2:Video Game Map Choice Boards: Use video game maps as a choice board template. Here is asampleusing FORTNITE as a Digital Menu. Set up the tech any way you like, I would probably do Google Slides transparent elements that link out to other places.The Battle Pass Grading Scheme:Change up the grading scheme. Instead of a traditional grading sheet, give students a "Battle Pass" tracker. Completing mandatory tasks earns them "XP" (points) to level up. Offer "Weekly Challenges" (optional bonus questions or creative projects) that unlock cosmetic rewards, like choosing the classroom music, getting a digital badge, or earning a "skip one homework assignment" voucher.Among Us: "Spot the Impostor" Source Analysis. This activity turns critical thinking, debate, and fact-checking into a high-stakes deduction game. How it Works: Divide students into small groups and hand them a packet of information—such as four short summaries of a historical event, four scientific claims, or four math equations worked out step-by-step. Among the real data, there is one Impostor (a text containing a historical fallacy, a grammatical error, misinformation, or a math mistake). Students must complete "tasks" (analyze the text) and call an Emergency Meeting to debate which source is "sus." To vote a source out, they must back up their claim with textual evidence or proof.Fortnite Inspired Room Escapes. The setting for this fun room escape is Fortnite. Create this using any video game and any digital template you prefer. Here is a oneon Greek Mythology available for purchase that inspired this idea.Minecraft Education Edition for biome creation. In Minecraft, a biome is a distinct geographical region within a world that features its own unique terrain, climate, vegetation, and colors. Biomes determine what resources you can gather, which animals (mobs) will spawn naturally, and even whether it rains or snows.Animal Crossinginspired town building activity. Island Design: Students are given a blank grid sheet to map out their own "Island Community." They must decide where to put public spaces, businesses, and residential zones. The Bell Economy: Introduce a classroom currency ("Bells"). Students earn Bells for completing assignments or displaying good citizenship. They must budget their Bells to buy "furniture" or upgrades for their paper island (e.g., printable stickers of trees, bridges, or buildings). Town Ordinances: Introduce civics by letting the class vote on a weekly "Town Ordinance"—a classroom rule that everyone must follow (like "Friendly Friday" where every desk transition requires a high-five).Narrative writing with a video game twist. Students do a traditional paper and pencil narrative writing assignment, but about a video game of their choice. Then use Canva book cover templates and Magic Media AI to edit the template to match their video game inspired story. Here is a samplefrom the Merrils where Canva was used to create a video game cover after a narrative writing assignment.Pokémon: "Evolutionary" Adaptation Trading Cards: Two different content approaches here, one for science and one for ELAIn Science: Students choose a real-life animal and design a three-stage "Evolutionary Line" card game deck based on its lineage (e.g., an ancient ancestor, a prehistoric link, and the modern animal). They list its "Type" (habitat), "HP" (population status), and "Attacks" (physical or behavioral adaptations). In ELA: Students create trading cards for characters in a novel. A character's "Stats" (such as Bravery, Empathy, or Wisdom) change as they grow. When a character hits a major turning point in the plot, they "evolve" into a new card stage with updated stats and an altered description.Edtech Throwdown: Vote on twitter @edtechthrowdown and under the pinned post on the profile.Segment 3: Where to Find EdTech ThrowdownDo us a few favors:Subscribe to the Edtech Throwdown PodcastApple PodcastsSpotifyAmazon PodcastsStitcher YouTube Twitter FacebookWrite us an Apple Podcast Review!Tell your friends aboutwww.edtechthrowdown.comTell your friends about the Teach Better Podcast Network

    Why Even With Great Products AI Startups Lose with 3x Founder Mahesh Ram, ex-Zoom AI

    100x Entrepreneur

    What does a founder learn from watching the CEO of a 32 billion dollar company make his biggest AI bets from the inside?Mahesh Ram has built and sold three companies. Thomson Reuters acquired his first, GlobalEnglish went to Pearson after teaching English to more than ten million people at companies like IBM and HP, and Solvvy, one of the first conversational AI companies, was bought by Zoom in 2022. He then spent two and a half years heading AI products at Zoom, sitting beside founder Eric Yuan as the company raced Microsoft into the AI era.In this conversation, Mahesh takes apart the three decisions that put Zoom ahead. Eric refused to charge for AI Companion because he believed everyone in the world should have AI, he publicly promised to never train models on customer data; and he built a model-agnostic layer instead of betting the company on any single lab. Zoom shipped weeks before Microsoft Copilot. Mahesh also shares the operating habits that made it possible, from the five-part rule Eric demands on every decision to the radical transparency that turned his own team into owners.He is just as direct about the question every founder now asks: whether OpenAI or Anthropic will simply take their market. He answers that the model companies cannot see the hundreds of custom applications running quietly inside every enterprise, so the durable business is the one that owns the messy, multi-party workflows they will never touch. On the wider fear that AI will kill SaaS, he thinks the shift is real but that Silicon Valley badly overestimates how fast it arrives, which leaves a huge opening for founders willing to go out and become the educators their market trusts.He closes on what he has learned selling three companies, why the best ones are bought and never sold, and the community of Indian origin founders he now runs that grew from three hundred people to more than two thousand in a single year.If you are excited about building enduring AI and software companies, this episode is for you.00:00 - Trailer01:27 - The three time founder who keeps destroying complexity03:08 - Two billion people learning English with no teacher04:45 - Building conversational AI before anyone knew what AI was07:21 - How Zoom came to acquire Solvvy11:08 - Working with Eric Yuan, a true force of nature13:43 - The three bold AI bets that beat Microsoft to market15:09 - Why Eric made Zoom's AI free and refused to touch your data17:29 - The five part rule Eric demands on every decision21:25 - Radical transparency: share everything except one thing23:32 - What Mahesh would build differently today29:05 - The moat question: how do you survive OpenAI and Anthropic35:33 - What Claude and OpenAI can never see inside a company41:01 - Will AI kill SaaS?

    The TRUTH About SHOWING UP What does it really mean to “show up?” Is simply being present enough, or is there a deeper way to engage with our work, relationships, and purpose? In this inspiring episode of the Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast, host Vicki Noethling welcomes bestselling author, TEDx speaker, and management consultant Marcy Axelrod for a thought-provoking conversation about the science, psychology, and leadership behind how we choose to show up every day. Drawing on more than two decades of research and experience working with global organizations including HP, Cisco, and SAP, Marcy shares why so many people “just show up,” what keeps us from bringing our authentic selves to every moment, and how nature itself provides a powerful blueprint for thriving. Together, they explore practical ways to create deeper connections, become more intentional leaders, and live with greater purpose. Whether you’re leading a team, growing a business, or simply striving to become the best version of yourself, this episode will challenge you to rethink what it truly means to show up with confidence, authenticity, and impact. 80% of us “JUST” Show Up to the moments of our lives, breeding discontent, underachieving and lack of meaning.

    Believing the Bizarre: Paranormal Conspiracies & Myths

    The Silent Watcher | Paranormal Podcast This week, we've got 2 listener submissions that genuinely got under our skin — first from Logan in Indiana, who as a 3 or 4 year old kept waking up to a silent black humanoid figure slowly rocking in the chair across his room, and when we say silent, we mean the kind of deliberate, suffocating silence that swallowed even the sound of a child screaming for his parents. Then we dove into Aaron's story from a small town in Virginia, where between the red-eyed figure lurking in the backyard, poltergeist activity luring the brothers out of the room to rearrange their playing cards, a Sacred Heart of Jesus painting hiding something very unexpected on the back, and a backwards-printing printer that was probably just haunted by HP customer service — the house was putting in serious work. But the creepiest encounter was the one Aaron's atheist father witnessed alone in that living room — a thick black fog that crawled across the floor, rose up, shaped itself into something human, and then made a sound we'd never heard described before right in his face.
