You are going to learn a lot about Google over the next few weeks, as they are a great firm we can follow and learn from.
Did you know that for many executives at Google they spend 20% of their time innovating. So they have pet projects of their own which they work on and develop. Once they reach a certain stage Google management gets involved and then if appropriate Google may even take these ideas several stages further!
So for example many of the tools, such as Google maps, Gmail, Google checkout have emanated from individuals in Google being allowed to innovate.
They have made innovation the heart of their organisation.
Maybe it is time for all of us to start following their lead!
Don't procrastinate - Innovate!
