Goethe
What is Innovation?
Innovation = New Idea & Billing
Anything that won't sell, I don't want to invent. Its sale is proof of
utility, and utility is success.
Thomas Edison
“The test of an innovation, after all, lies not its novelty, its
scientific content, or its cleverness. It lies in its success in the
marketplace.”
Peter Drucker

Invention, Innovation and Ruta n
"....Invention
is the first occurrence of an idea for a
new product or process, while innovation is the first
attempt to carry it out in practice. To be able to turn an
invention into an innovation, the innovator normally needs to
combine several different types of knowledge, capabilities, skills
and resources. For instance, production knowledge, skills,
facilities, market knowledge, a well-functioning distribution system,
sufficient financial resources, and so on may be required. It
follows that the role of the innovator, i.e., the person or
organizational unit responsible for combining these required
factors (what Schumpeter called the “entrepreneur”), may be quite
different from that of the inventor"
Attributed to the innovation-theorist Joseph Schumpeter.
From "Innovation – a New Guide". Jan Fagerberg.

Funding and Modern Program Management for
$140 Million USD of Projects in ST+i
“No estamos muy acostumbrados, pero la PMO nos ha hecho pensar y reflexionar,
que es muy importante tener un control más cercano del avance del proyecto, sobre
todo cuando los proyectos son con tanta gente y hay tantas áreas involucradas como
es nuestro caso, por ende la PMO ha agregado demasiado valor, poco a poco vamos
entendiendo la metodología y el valor de la misma.”
"La cosa esta muy bien. Es un aprendizaje
para muchos. Puede ser muy harto que sea
mensual, pero eso es la ley. Cuando uno
tiene algo que lo presiona, uno hace las
cosas; es bueno."
“Nosotros estábamos atrasados con la PMO, por lo tanto les
solicitamos trabajar toda la parte de planeación y reportes con
un equipo encargado y no directamente conmigo, la PMO me
colaboro muchísimo, eso me permitió que el proyecto pudiera
adelantarse, y hoy establecimos la línea base gracias a ustedes,
las respuestas han sido muy acertadas y muy oportunas, y nos
brindan siempre correcciones con mucho sentido, su apoyo nos
ayuda a dar sentido a la parte administrativa y a la parte técnica
y a saber por dónde coger, estoy realmente agradecido con
ustedes, nos han dado un alivio.”
"Me parece que todo ha
estado muy bien
organizado, nos ha
servido mucho para
nuestro proyecto y hemos
aprendido a manejar muy
bien la herramienta, me
parece que todo ha sido
muy positivo.”

We have to build communities,
like fractal netw orks in
multiple “dimensions”
attempting to fill up all
available “space”. We have to
inspire them, guide them and
keep them moving, but in the
end, they are w ho define their
path and their w ay of
operation. (Elkin Echeverri)
