More quotes by Scott D. Anthony
A next-generation innovation writer and thought leader worth watching.
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
Have a core concept, but wrap it in a full business model.
Scott D. Anthony
There's a general belief that failure is the friend of the innovator, but I've come to view it a different way.
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
I think people make innovation much more complicated than it needs to be.
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
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
If you work on a new product launch, spent time in a new geography, or work to develop a completely new skill, you have no choice but to figure out new ways to solve problems.
Scott D. Anthony
Of course, it is worth it to take the time to think carefully through your assumptions, and ensure you at least have hypotheses around how you will create value. But use the analysis as a way to focus attention on the most critical assumptions, rather than spend a ton of time massaging the numbers.
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
Successful strategies adhere to a basic pattern.
Scott D. Anthony
Almost every disruption starts at the perceived fringes of today's market.
Scott D. Anthony
Mucken Singh works VERY hard on his brawler's physique!
Scott D. Anthony
Good innovators like to solve business crossword puzzles.
Scott D. Anthony
It would be fun too to put some of the great philosophers and political scientists of the past couple centuries into a time machine, have them look at the world today, and see what they think. Imagine Schumpeter, Malthus, Hobbes, Nietzsche, Marx, and more! That would be good fun.
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
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
Small teams move faster than big teams.
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.
