Despite popular belief, invention is not the same as innovation. Just as people confuse disruption with innovation, they get invention, ideation, and innovation all twisted up into one singular concept. They are related, but the distinction is quite simple: invention and ideation are all about coming up with ideas, innovation is about executing<\/em> on them. To put it in relevant business terms, invention does not require commercial success, innovation can\u2019t exist without it. Whether innovators develop an idea from scratch or build on successes of the past, they must execute continuously and relentlessly\u2014which is really the only thing that is under their control when it comes to success anyhow. Inventors, on the other hand, can create something, then call it a day.<\/p>\n

Consider the number of patents filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office every year; they receive applications for literally hundreds of thousands of them.[i]<\/a> In 2018, they issued their ten-millionth\u2014they\u2019ve been busy since Bell, Morse, Edison, and Ford.[ii]<\/a> The year prior, 3.2 million patents were applied for globally.[iii]<\/a> Many of those patents will never be acted upon\u2014that\u2019s invention, not innovation. Of course, many inventions are not patented and are kept as trade secret, like Coca-Cola\u2019s recipe, and some patent activity occurs for other reasons besides commercialization, like image and prestige, not to mention patent trolling. But 97 percent of all US patents never end up making any<\/em> money, probably because most inventors lack skills to take their ideas to the market.[iv]<\/a> That\u2019s where teams come into play.<\/p>\n

Teams are absolutely necessary to figure out whether or not certain ideas are worth pursuing in the first place, providing insight into they\u2019re viability (most team members will appreciate their peers\u2019 help with this aspect early on). If they are viable, then working together in teams is the only way to turn these good ideas into reality. Otherwise they\u2019ll never come to fruition. Still, teams will only be successful if they consist of individuals with unique skills, personalities, and backgrounds and who are willing to collaborate together, regardless of title or function.<\/p>\n

Related, no function or team within an organization should have a monopoly on innovation\u2014not now and not ever. In fact, it\u2019s quite dangerous if only one does. Transformative ideas can occur anywhere, and their scope should not be limited to an employee\u2019s core function or job description. As a leader, it is not your responsibility to \u201cbox\u201d your people in, but rather to give them opportunities to explore innovation while helping them to align their efforts with organizational goals. Help them express their ideas and subsequently move beyond ideation and invention. Have them start innovating by connecting them with other employees who are open to the possibilities of innovation and willing to work with cross-functional teams. Effective, cross-functional teams are essential to solving one of the biggest problems hurting even the most successful companies and making it impossible for them to innovate\u2014the dreaded silo mentality.<\/p>\n
