Innovation and creativity come from

Innovation and creativity are best fostered byencouraging internal cross-functional teams to develop original ideas and strategies. This approach leverages diverse perspectives and expertise, promotes ownership, and aligns innovation with organizational context. The IASP SPP curriculum underscores that internal collaboration is more sustainable and relevant than relying solely on external consultants or benchmarking. While best practices are informative, original ideas tailored to organizational capabilities and market needs drive true innovation. Product elimination may reduce complexity but does not inherently foster creativity.【IASP SPP Study Guide - Innovation Management】【Prahalad & Ramaswamy, Co-creation of Value】
