(openPR) - The most successful innovation strategies reveal direction, instill discipline and strengthen developments throughout the organization. Competitive advantage depends upon the imaginative application of everyday knowledge. Innovative business leadership in marketing, IT, technology or new ventures demands using a proven strategy for unleashing the imagination of people.
Pueblo, Colorado - May 20, 2006 - When business conditions demand continuous streams of competitive advantages, imaginative solutions or innovative strategies, it's time to search for, move towards and follow the avenues of new opportunities available through a comprehensive innovation strategy.
Leadership means challenging the "status quo", envisioning a desirable state of affairs and encouraging the hearts of people to continue moving on the road less traveled. Innovative marketing, IT, technology or business development strategies must reveal a clear direction, instill the discipline of facing reality and strengthen the capabilities of every resource.
Dr. Stephen Covey, author of the Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, describes how, "every human has four endowments- self awareness, conscience, independent will and creative imagination. These give us the ultimate human freedom... The power to choose, to respond, to change. "
A study conducted by, Kevin Hassett, and Dr. Robert Shapiro, estimated the total value of ideas and innovations generated by US economy to average, "more than $5 trillion a year, roughly 42 percent of the country's gross domestic product and far more than any other nation's GDP."
On June 15, in Sydney, Australia, author and entrepreneur, Bill Thomas, will deliver a keynote and lead a workshop on a strategy model for sustainable innovations. "Imagination", according to Mr. Thomas, "has supplanted knowledge as the key driver of competitive advantage." He advocates using a systematic, structured and synergetic methodology for developing an innovative organization.
"The best, most successful innovation strategy", says Thomas, "involves looking inside and outside your marketing, IT, technology, business development or organizational boundaries to source and create innovative solutions."
