The Roles of Risk and Luck in Innovation
Innovation is often associated with risk and luck. While risk can lead to better-than-expected outcomes, uncertainty can also make decision-making challenging. To mitigate risk, innovators must focus on customer needs while systematizing innovation. By breaking down plans into smaller, manageable chunks and increasing the pace of innovation, companies can minimize uncertainty and increase their odds of success. Luck is a factor as well, but with determination, hard work, and smart planning, the role of luck can be reduced.
