Making Your Own Idea Whiteboard

Whiteboards have become an essential tool for organizations, especially for idea generation and innovation programs. However, to fully benefit from them, support from management and governance must also be in place. Whiteboards serve three purposes: focus on performance indicators, act as a reminder, and add a sense of competitiveness. Supportive leadership is crucial for success, and having idea whiteboards publicly displayed expedites the approval process. Governance involves focusing on small ideas, implementation, consistent brainstorming, and tracking an idea's progress. The "Ten Minute Idea Scrum Agenda" is a helpful tool to guide progress. Remember, as a leader, you are part of the team and must actively engage with team members to ensure idea implementation.
