Building relationships, with suppliers, customers, press and other stake holders, is key to the success of your innovation initiative. They cannot be built overnight, only when we need help. Relationships have to be a carefully nurtured 365 days a year exercise.
The web of relationships creates the networking required for success in problem solving. Great relationships with your stake holders make the process of achieving ‘stretch’ goals interesting and exciting.
So make this day for the 3 Rs - Revisit, Review, and Relate.
Revisit the mission statement of your company and review the progress of the projects with special reference to building and enhancing relationships :
• Within the commando teams
• Between Innovation spirals
• Between the steering committee and the spirals
Make sure that there is no turf protection.
