Serendipity
Download as pptx, pdf1 like417 views
An engineering company is redesigning their office space to promote serendipity and innovation among employees. Serendipity refers to fortunate accidental discoveries that can lead to disruptive insights. The company aims to maximize "casual collisions" between employees by making the workspace more open and collaborative. This includes installing rooftop cafes and limiting travel time between work areas to under three minutes. Empirical studies show people get better ideas when interacting with others in motion rather than isolated at their desks. The goal is to improve knowledge work through cross-departmental collaboration and sharing of ideas.

This document summarizes key points from a talk on innovation in the pharmaceutical industry. It discusses the origins of innovation and how individuals and teams can foster innovation. Some of the main ideas presented include embracing reality while allowing excitement, creating an unusual primary task, and establishing a "micro-culture" through structured steps of invitation, relationship building, safety, and future-oriented activities to drive creative thinking outside normal routines. Unreasonable requests and exercises that disrupt routines can help spark breakthrough ideas. Advance preparation, enrollment of sponsors, and facilitation of a level playing field are also emphasized.The secret ingridient to innovate

This document discusses lessons on how to foster innovation, especially among youth. It recommends getting out of one's comfort zone, being open to new ideas, and leveraging technology to connect with others from diverse backgrounds in order to collaborate and exchange resources across borders. It also emphasizes the importance of strong support systems like mentoring networks and forums to share experiences and ideas without fear of criticism in an environment where innovation is welcomed and new knowledge is appreciated.

Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral infection found in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. It causes flu-like symptoms and occasionally develops into a potentially lethal condition called severe dengue. The incidence of dengue has grown dramatically in recent decades, with over half of the world's population now at risk and an estimated 50-100 million infections occurring annually. Severe dengue is a major cause of illness and death in children in parts of Asia and Latin America. There is no vaccine or specific treatment, but early detection and medical care lowers fatality rates. Prevention depends on effective vector control measures to reduce mosquito populations.Revisi坦n: Resistencia a la insulina y el s鱈ndrome de ovario poliqu鱈stico. Una...

Insulin resistance and cancer the role of insulin and IGFsBladimir Viloria

This document discusses the role of insulin and insulin-like growth factors (ILFs) such as IGF1 and IGF2 in linking insulin resistance to cancer risk. It summarizes evidence that ILPs regulate cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis through signaling pathways involved in carcinogenesis. While some epidemiological studies found associations between ILP levels and cancer risk, the data is still debated. The document reviews how ILP signaling through insulin and IGF receptors can activate pathways driving cell growth and inhibiting cell death, thus playing a role in cancer development and progression. It proposes ILPs may represent a link between the pathogenic processes of insulin resistance, inflammation, diabetes, and certain cancers.Four Steps to Innovation
Four Steps to InnovationDr. Stephen Pick, PMP

This document discusses four phases of innovation: generate ideas, imagine new uses for existing ideas, frame non-industry ideas for your field, and test ideas. It provides examples of how innovators have applied ideas from other fields, such as using designs from nature to improve armor and buildings. The key is generating many ideas, including from novices without experience in the field, and combining ideas in novel ways, like applying wartime technology to civilians. Innovation happens through an iterative process of generating, imagining, framing, and testing ideas.Innovation and creativity 05 innovative people

This document discusses characteristics of innovative people and the skills they possess. It describes an "innovator's DNA" model which consists of 4 behavioral skills - questioning, observing, networking, and experimenting - that help develop the cognitive skill of associational thinking which is key to generating innovative ideas. Innovators engage in these skills more frequently than others because they have the courage to challenge the status quo and take risks to create change. Their passion for improving lives drives their innovation.Collaboration: Something Old, Something Bold, Something Cold

Collaboration provides significant opportunities but requires consideration of cultural and personality factors:
1) Collaboration is not a silver bullet and its use should be intentional.
2) A culture that does not value collaboration will constrain its effectiveness, requiring work to make the culture more collaborative.
3) Personality impacts how people collaborate best, and introverts in particular need environments that value quiet, trust, and space for deep thinking to perform at their highest levels.Multitasking
MultitaskingThink Talent Servcies

Multitasking has become a virtue in modern business, but it may come at great cost. While the brain can focus on two tasks simultaneously by splitting labor between hemispheres, managing more than two tasks reduces efficiency as time is wasted in task switching. Regular interruptions cost the average knowledge worker over 2 hours per day and $588 billion annually for businesses. Creativity and innovation are higher when focusing on one task or collaborating with one person. Long-term stress from constant multitasking negatively impacts health and task engagement as stress is the number one reason for reduced productivity.Multitasking

While the brain can focus on two tasks simultaneously by splitting labor between hemispheres, managing more than two tasks reduces efficiency significantly. Frequent interruptions cost the average knowledge worker 2.1 hours per day and $588 billion annually for businesses. Multitasking also increases stress levels, which impacts health and reduces creativity needed for innovation. True focus on one task at a time may be more productive approach.ProcessNathaniel Barr, PhDWhat is creativity, anyway

Some of the ideas include hiring people who make you uncomfortable, using job interviews to gather ideas rather than screen candidates, and doing projects that are likely to fail in order to convince others that success is certain. The review discusses how Sutton's ideas can serve as a foundation or "menu" for innovation approaches. It also emphasizes the importance of bringing in diverse knowledge and perspectives, and challenging past assumptions to drive new ways of thinking.Open Science - to what end and why ?
