5 Minutes To New Ideas With Phil McKinneyAvoiding the Habit TrapWhen I was growing up, one time my grandmother baked a fantastic German Chocolate cake. I can see it now -- that moist chocolate cake and rich icing. It was great and everyone in the family let her know how great it was. We devoured the cake. But from that time on, we could count on a German Chocolate cake as THE dessert every time we would visit. It became a little boring. Needless to say, I never told her that. Everyone wants and needs change. But on the other hand, we enjoy doing what we do w...2019-07-0406 minKiller Innovations with Phil McKinneyKiller Innovations with Phil McKinney: 06/30/2019Killer Innovations with Phil McKinney: 06/30/2019The award winning Killer Innovation radio show, hosted by Phil McKinney, shares the skills and lessons learned from the hosts +30 year career developing award winning products and technologies.

5 Minutes To New Ideas With Phil McKinneyInnovation Attitude is Innovation SuccessI find it interesting that we usually get from other people exactly what we expect of them. If we are looking for friendship, we will likely receive it. If our attitude is that of indifference, we will get indifference. And if we are looking for a fight, we will in all likelihood find ourselves in the middle of a fight. The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude has on me. When it comes to success, attitude is more important than what happened in the past, more than your education, more t...2019-06-2706 min
5 Minutes To New Ideas With Phil McKinneyInnovation Requires Getting the Facts RightThere is an old saying that goes something like this, “Speaking with passion but without the facts is like making a beautiful dive into an empty pool.” As John Adam’s famously said, “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” To convince or persuade others to support your idea, you have to base your idea on incontestable facts that are readily grasped and understood. When it comes to taking your idea and turning it into dis...2019-06-2005 minKiller Innovations with Phil McKinneyKiller Innovations with Phil McKinney: 06/16/2019Killer Innovations with Phil McKinney: 06/16/2019The award winning Killer Innovation radio show, hosted by Phil McKinney, shares the skills and lessons learned from the hosts +30 year career developing award winning products and technologies.

5 Minutes To New Ideas With Phil McKinneyChange Caused by InnovationAs a result of some digital spring cleaning I was doing, I found and was listening to old shows from 2005 - the first year of my podcast. Honestly, given what I know now, I wish could have re-written and re-recorded them. The technology and tools now available to podcasters are far superior to what we had back in those early days. This got me to thinking about how wonderful innovation is and how easy is for us to overlook it. Fifty years ago, we lived in a way that would be considered a burden today...2019-06-1305 minKiller Innovations with Phil McKinneyKiller Innovations with Phil McKinney: 06/09/2019Killer Innovations with Phil McKinney: 06/09/2019The award winning Killer Innovation radio show, hosted by Phil McKinney, shares the skills and lessons learned from the hosts +30 year career developing award winning products and technologies.

5 Minutes To New Ideas With Phil McKinneyInnovation Quality is a VirtueI was looking through some of my old idea notebooks and came across a quote that I wrote down. It is one of those quotes that cause you to pause and contemplate. To question your own personal motivations. The quote? “Institutions, like vineyards, should be judged by the quality of their vintages.” Its worth think about, isn’t it? “Institutions, like vineyards, should be judged by the quality of their vintages.” An institutions impact should be measured over time just as it takes years if not decades to truly know what the quality of the vin...2019-06-0605 minKiller Innovations with Phil McKinneyKiller Innovations with Phil McKinney: 06/02/2019Killer Innovations with Phil McKinney: 06/02/2019The award winning Killer Innovation radio show, hosted by Phil McKinney, shares the skills and lessons learned from the hosts +30 year career developing award winning products and technologies.

5 Minutes To New Ideas With Phil McKinneyTNI - Ageism and InnovationSome have put forth what I believe is a false premise -- that creativity and innovation are for the young. Silicon Valley has clearly bought into this premise. If you are over 40, some could rightly argue 35, many of the companies in the valley have taken the position that you are over the hill. The average age of an employee at leading Silicon Valley companies like Facebook is 28 while Google is 30. My former employer, HP looks like a retirement home with the average age of its employees being 39. Some of the companies in...2019-05-3006 minKiller Innovations with Phil McKinneyKiller Innovations with Phil McKinney: 05/26/2019Killer Innovations with Phil McKinney: 05/26/2019The award winning Killer Innovation radio show, hosted by Phil McKinney, shares the skills and lessons learned from the hosts +30 year career developing award winning products and technologies.

5 Minutes To New Ideas With Phil McKinneyInnovation CommunitiesI’m not sure who said it first but I’ll give credit to Tony Robbins for the now famous quote -- “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with” With a slight tweak, you can apply this quote to networks, communities, tribes, and friends you socialize with. If you changed that quote to be … “You are the average of the five social networks where you spend the most time” What would that say about you? Remember that it’s the average.

Of that, we will spend the equivalent of twenty-three years and four months of it asleep. We will work nineteen years eight months practicing our religion and ten years and two months in recreation.

5 Minutes To New Ideas With Phil McKinneySo Your Idea Was RejectedYour idea was rejected. Criticized. Dumped on. You were told to give up. I have yet to find anyone who likes to have their ideas rejected. But if you want to succeed in innovation, you have to put yourself and your ideas out there which means you will get rejected. You have no other choice. The alternative is to avoid rejection and criticism which translates into 100% chance that your idea will never become a reality. To set the proper expectation, your ideas will be rejected far more times than they will be accepted. In Silicon...2019-05-0906 min
5 Minutes To New Ideas With Phil McKinneyInnovating Using The Daffodil PrincipalWant to know the secret to take ideas and make them real innovations? It is what I call the “daffodil principle” which I learned/stole from an article published by Jaroldeen Edwards. In one of the small mountain communities in the Sierra foothills, there is a church. If you take the time to pull off the road and walk around the side of the church, you will see a hand-lettered sign pointing to the "Daffodil Garden." A quick walk down the path and you will see the most unbelievable sight. It looked as though someone had...2019-05-0206 min

How do you keep your customers believing that your content is worth paying for when there is endless free content available on the Internet? Some fashion magazines are experimenting with making their print issues feel like “must-buy” items; Bazaar and Elle both offer subscriber-only covers with edgier photography. Others, like the British style magazine i-D, routinely print magazines with multiple, collectible covers.

Over years of experience of both innovation success and failures, I've uncovered three areas of focus for sourcing innovation that will have significant impact. Before jumping into the three areas of focus, there is a basic skill that is required. That is the ability to create questions that will cause you to look at these three areas differently.
