Opportunities to innovate abound in bad times as well as good times. In fact, the opportunities are often greater in tough times.
When things go downhill, innovation gives us the traction needed to climb uphill because innovation creates opportunities to solve problems:
Better
Faster
Cheaper
In more personalized ways
In more trusted ways
More sustainably
More inclusively
More equitably
More accessibly
More conveniently
More productively
More creatively
More delightfully
Innovation solves problems and, during tough times, there are lots of problems and people eager for solutions.
In tough times, we need innovators to seize the opportunities.
