September’s Refresh: Innovation = Hard Work
by Kevin Lawver on September 8, 2010
September’s Refresh is fast approaching, so it’s time to get my act together and tell you what we’re talking about, right? Â This month, Ron Pearl is going to talk about “Innovation”. Â Wait, stop… don’t run away! Â We’re not going to be talking about the amorphous, poorly defined, silly buzz word version of innovation – we’re going to talk about the real thing, why it’s so difficult to actually innovate and then go over some tools for gathering ideas and boiling them down to actual innovation. Â We’ll be going over some of the brainstorming stuff we didn’t get to last month, which should be a lot of fun.
So… bring your brains and get ready to have them blown to smithereens.
We’ll be at ThincSpace again, and this month we’re trying an earlier start time. Â So, be at 35 Barnard at 6PM on 9/21 and get ready to innovate!
Also, if you’d like to sponsor, let me know (kevin-at-lawver.net). Â I think everyone enjoys the beer and it seems to get things off on the right informal track.
