Dateline:  Saratoga, CA

Segment 1: High Performance Innovation Teams

– Create a Bold Outrageous Goal (BOG)
- Identify an Enemy
- Freedom from the corporate hairball
- Assign the "right" resources
- The right team mix
  • 1 Strong Visionary – the sole of the innovation being creating
  • 1 "Radar O’Reilly" – they can fix any issue by working the system
  • 1 or 2 Mavericks – the mad scientist types
  • 1 Parent – providing "adult" supervision
  • Handful of execution demons – they execute, execute, execute
  • Bridge/Translators – interface to the rest of the organization

"The best leader is the one who has sense enough to pick good men to do what he wants done, and self-restraint enough to keep from meddling with them while they do it"    Theodore Roosevelt
