More quotes by Scott D. Anthony
Any leader has two jobs to do. To do what they are currently doing better and more efficiently (call this strengthening the core), and to do what they are not currently doing but will need to do in the future (call this creating the new).
Scott D. Anthony
People who copy what exists copy a point-in-time artifact, and if you are managing the process correctly you are already hard at work on the next thing.
Scott D. Anthony
You have to chip away at it and shape it to let the winning idea emerge.
Scott D. Anthony
The sad truth is as difficult as the first mile can be for entrepreneurs, it is doubly tough inside most large companies as innovators can face some significant headwinds.
Scott D. Anthony
Successful strategies adhere to a basic pattern.
Scott D. Anthony
There is what Steve Blank calls the stage where you are searching for a scalable business model. Then, there is the stage when you have found that model and need to scale it. In the former stage you have to have a beginner's mind, be in learning mode, and expect to learn things you didn't anticipate.
Scott D. Anthony
Three of our core corporate values are inclusiveness, collaboration, and humility.
Scott D. Anthony
Teams working on disruptive ideas need to be small enough that they can be fed by no more than two pizzas.
Scott D. Anthony
All disruptive innovators make it easier and more affordable for people to do what matters to them, and follow a strategy that doesn't at first glance make sense to the market leader.
Scott D. Anthony
We've got some great big problems in our world. We have to figure out how to feed 10 billion people. Too many people can't access clean water, quality healthcare, and reasonable education. We have to figure out what to do about climate change, income inequality, and more. Innovators need to rise to the challenge!
Scott D. Anthony
It's one of the underappreciated skills required by an innovator - they have to be able to convince lots of people to do things that might not be fully rational (invest in the company, join something that is likely to fail, try a product they've never seen before), and if you can't tell a good story it is just very hard to make that happen.
Scott D. Anthony
Small teams move faster than big teams.
Scott D. Anthony
Good innovators like to solve business crossword puzzles.
Scott D. Anthony
The reality is customers lie - not because they want to want to deceive you, but because they don't do a good job of predicting what they will do in the future.
Scott D. Anthony
I've come to the conclusion that the core characteristic that separates companies that get innovation from those that don't is a simple word: curiosity.
Scott D. Anthony
Everyone knows innovation involves developing unique understanding of a market, thinking expansively to develop a solution, and then finding a way to test rigorously and adapt quickly.
Scott D. Anthony
The most important thing here is to largely ignore what customers say, and instead watch what they do or track where they spend money.
Scott D. Anthony
Anytime you see a constrained market, where consumption is limited to those who have special skills or are wealthy, that signals an opportunity for innovation.
Scott D. Anthony
I think it is only in hindsight that you can determine whether something is a mistake or not.
Scott D. Anthony
A next-generation innovation writer and thought leader worth watching.
