Balancing Constant Improvement & Constant Innovation
This is one of the most important cornerstones in understanding Constant Improvement Vs Constant Innovation.
- Constant improvement is to make work more effective
- Constant innovation is to eliminate portions, or all of selected work requirements completely.
The two of these initiatives can be in direct conflict and must be balanced in their application. If work can be eliminated then making it more effective is absolutely redundant and a waste of resources. Getting your firm or organization's team to that skill set as soon as possible will reduce spent resources substantially versus the gains acquired.
Innovation is better approached with a strong internal team with developed kills in process/workflow improvement and change management skills whenever possible.
