Innovation? Only together!
Don't start a transformation without the involvement of managers and the participation and support of the stakeholders of the improved process. "Lonely island" will not last, and once frustrated by failure, the team will be reluctant to engage again.
Employees as a source of innovation
Worried that it's all on you, the leader? No, you are not the only "engine" of the company. Nothing happens without people. All you have to do is get them started in the right way.
