Innovation doesn't just happen. It's not like the cartoons - a lightbulb flashes on above someone's head and that's it. No - it's a journey and we need to understand how best to prepare for that journey, whatever kind of value we are trying to create.

Managing innovation - creating value from ideas
Enabling innovation - an interview with Sarah Kelly
One of the challenges facing innovation managers is to help create the kind of culture in which innovation becomes 'the way we do things around here'. It's easy enough when you are working with a specialist team of innovation professionals - but what happens when you try to involve the whole workforce? And how do you do this in a large global organization with thousands of employees all around the world?
This is the challenge Sarah Kelly, Senior Innovation Manager at Liberty Global faces on a daily basis and in this interview she explains a little more about the role and how she plays it.
(This is a new departure for the site - the first in a series of interviews with key actors in the world of managing innovation).
