528: The Only Business Metric That Matters is Ideaflow with Jeremy Utley (an Encore Presentation of Episode 446) Read to Lead Podcast
-
- Administración
My guest today asserts that we all want great ideas, but few of us actually understand how great ideas are born. Innovation, he says, is not an event, a workshop, a sprint, or a hackathon.
It’s a result of mastering ideaflow, a practice that elevates everything else you do.
His name is Jeremy Utley, and he is the coauthor, along with Perry Klebahn of IDEAFLOW: The Only Business Metric That Matters.
They advocate a simple core principle: ideas matter. Instead of focusing on output, innovators focus on input. Instead of obsessing over quality, innovators generate quantity.
They argue that every problem is an idea problem at its core, and changing the way you think about any problem will unleash success. Innovation is a volume game, and the quantity of ideas drives quality.

In today’s episode, I ask Jeremy to share why he believes:
* There’s no such thing as a creative person; rather it’s a skillset you develop or don’t
* Creativity is important to every organization, not just the “creative” ones
* Some of the misconceptions that keep individuals and teams from innovating more routinely
* And lots more!
