Innovation can increase revenue and reduce cost; hence, it is the job of everybody. But while many are desirous of innovative products, services and process, many companies do not spend enough time thinking about innovation because of lack of knowledge of what innovation really is, where to find it, what innovation strategies are available for them, and what process and tools to help them do it.
