What’s the real value of being an innovative company? (Forbes.com, 2013)

But, what’s at the core of being innovative? How do we get there?

Using Linus Pauling's adage "The way to have good ideas is to have more ideas," ExperienceYes enables companies to create a culture of innovation and increase their measurable creativity index by using the tools and techniques of improvisation. According to Forbes, that value equates to a 10%+ “Innovation Premium” for companies like Apple, Google and Salesforce.com. Simply put, innovation requires three things:
1) Creativity
2) New Ideas (and lots of them)
3) New ways to look at things

Enter ExperienceYes. ExperienceYes is an innovation company that uses the tools and techniques of Brain Disruption to allow teams to shut off their 'Executive Judge'. Academic studies have proven that “a single, promising, creative idea is strongly correlated (r2=.82) with the ability to quickly generate ideas.” (Kudrowitz, HaHa and Aha! Creativity, Idea Generation, Improvisation, and Product Design, 2010) Our workshops programs have been shown to increase participants’ ability to generate ideas by 41%. There are three core rules of this approach:
1) Yes, and…
2) Listen
3) Support your teammates at all costs

By leveraging these rules, ExperienceYes provides a measurable method for quantifying the creative process to make businesses more responsive, adaptive and innovative – pushing companies toward the goal of capturing that 10%+ “Innovation Premium”.

If your team feels a little more reactive right now, it might not be a performance issue.

It might be the season.

Q4 is deadlines, sure. It is also Halloween stuff, Thanksgiving stuff, family stuff, travel stuff, grief stuff, and the weird emotional weight that shows up when the calendar flips.

Two questions that help leaders lower the pressure without getting mushy:
1) What are the biggest things on your plate right now, in the office or out of the office?
2) What can I do to support you?

You do not need to be best friends. You just need to see the whole human.

New job and youre not sure how to meet people without feeling like a total weirdo?

Steal this move: meet one new person a week.
Then remember something about them (yes, notes count).

Because the worst time to introduce yourself is the moment you need something.

Whats one question you ask to get past small talk at work?

Managing Gen Z and they want a promotion immediately?

Instead of getting annoyed, get curious.

That drive is an asset if you channel it:
- Give real responsibility (not busywork)
- Make the promotion path visible
- Set the pace for your culture
- Remind them to master the job in front of them first

What's the best thing Gen Z has brought to your team lately?

If your boss pings you at 6am, 11pm, or over the weekend, stop guessing and get the expectation on the table.

Try this:
"When you send something outside normal hours, are you expecting a response right away or next business day?"

Then make it easy on both of you. Pick a simple label system:
- NEEDS RESPONSE NOW
- TOMORROW IS FINE
- FYI ONLY

No side-eye comments. No sarcasm. Just clarity (and a lot less stress).

How much silence is too much silence?

The 5-second rule is gold. It creates space. People share more. You learn something real.

Then there is the longer pause. In a negotiation? Waiting it out can win the moment.

And then there is creepy silence.
The kind where everyone starts looking around like: Who is driving this meeting?

Use silence on purpose:
1) Pause for 5 (listening)
2) If you are waiting it out, own it (stay calm, stay present)
3) If the room is drifting, take the reins with one clean question

Silence is a tool, not a personality trait.

Ever replay a conversation for HOURS… and somehow it is never the good ones?

If you are looping on “that” conversation, try this:
1) Ask: What is real? What is true? What story am I telling myself?
2) Decide what is actually at stake.
3) Write down 3 next steps (or plan the follow-up conversation).

Your brain wants closure. Give it a plan.

Want a simple follow-up line you can send to reset the conversation?

You think you're a good listener. Your team seems to disagree.

Here's what's really happening: You're not aware of what you're actually doing. You're checking your phone. Scanning Slack. Looking at Teams. Half-present while someone's trying to tell you something important.

The trap is thinking you know what good listening looks like. You don't - at least not from their perspective.

So here's what I'd do: Sit down with a couple of people on your team and ask them directly. Not defensively. Not to argue. Just to understand.

"What are you seeing that leads you to believe I'm not a good listener? Or - what do you need to see from me to show you I'm genuinely with you?"

Because the first step to being a better listener isn't changing your behavior. It's understanding what you're missing. It's getting curious about your blind spot instead of defending it.

That's the kind of self-awareness we ALL need.

You think your idea is the best one in the room.

Guess what? Everyone else thinks the same thing about theirs.

Here's the trap: If you don't allow space for curiosity about other ideas, you've got zero chance of selling your brilliant idea as brilliant. Because nobody's actually listening. They're waiting for their turn to talk. They're already thinking about why their idea is better.

So what happens? Great ideas get buried. Innovation stalls. Teams talk past each other instead of with each other.

The fix is deceptively simple: Tell yourself, I'm not certain. I'm going to be curious.

When you shift from "I know mine's better" to "What could be possible here?" - that's when everything changes. That's when you move from pitch mode to solution mode. That's when all ideas are actually welcome.

It's the difference between arrogance and leadership.

Curiosity wins!
