Innovation does not come from a room full of people brainstorming. The recombining of ideas into something new happens inside individual minds, with the group supplying diverse input and integration. Everyone can generate ideas; environments either suppress that or set it free.
This collection is about how leaders create the conditions for innovation and avoid accidentally killing it: protecting the generative phase from premature evaluation, and supplying the synthesis and commitment that turn raw ideas into something that ships.
