I was surprised and amazing by the breadth and depth of ideas that came forward from the same base question- What is the definition of Innovation.
After reading and considering each post, I jotted down idea that wasn't included (or fully explored) in my own definition. This strategy stopped me from the going into the task of "word-smithing" to a deeper level discovery: what are the important elements of innovation? Then, after seeing all the ideas, I was able to pull out those ideas that I felt were the most important- the essential ingredients of innovation so that I could then weave the ideas into a definition.
My definition was still crazy-long, but at least at the end, I felt it was complete (see below).
My final product... a more thorough definition of innovation... thank you fellow students for getting game there!
Innovation:
Ideas, of either good
or evil origin, that are conceived of need, reconsidered, adapted, further
developed or intersected with other ideas so they can be applied as a solution to
a pervasive problem, issue or concern.
