- Respect difficult problems December 13, 2018
  They’re difficult because they resist simple solutions. Glib answers and over-simplication have been tried before, and failed. People have tried all of the obvious solutions. They haven’t worked.

- The Plain Language of Innovation
  Icadore Feldknocker Icadore Feldknocker Innovation jargon - we see it and hear it every day. For practitioners, it’s our vocabulary. But does our audience know what we’re talking about?
