What Pixar Shorts Can Teach Us About Innovation

What Pixar Shorts Can Teach Us About Innovation

Pixar's journey began with a short film 'André and Wally B' (1984) that demonstrated the capabilities of digital animation. From this humble start, Pixar continued making shorts to innovate, test new talent and improve tools. Anyone can propose a new project to the executive producer on shorts, and the roles are assigned depending upon the skills required to complete each project. This model of undirected innovation is potentially applicable to any company as it enables workers to play, have ideas and carry them out autonomously. It helps to create new talents, services and products, enhance employee satisfaction and self-confidence.
