Thought Tweet #703

by Rick Baker
On Mar 27, 2013

Thought Tweet #703 I believe Leaders should provide Opportunities…that’s an obligation in the Leadership role.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

  1. Napoleon Bonaparte is reported to have said, "Circumstances-what are circumstances? I make circumstances”. If he could do it so can we.
  2. Problems often are the seeds that grow Opportunities. So, P=2S+O
  3. Leaders are in the best position to create Opportunities

Thought Tweet #675

On Feb 15, 2013

Thought Tweet #675 The 3 prongs of innovation: invention, discovery, and stumbling upon.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

P=2S+O...for every Problem [P], think of at least 2 Solutions [2S] and keep your eyes peeled for Opportunities [O].

Taking a P=2S+O approach to problems: that's a proven way to invent, discover, and stumble upon innovation.
