SIX BEHAVIORS TO UNLOCK INNOVATION
Source: Hewlett, S.A., Marshall, M. & Sherbin, L. (2013). How diversity can drive innovation? Harvard Business Review, 91(12), 30.
ensuring everyone is heard
making it safe to propose novel ideas
giving team members decision-making authority
sharing credit for success
giving actionable feedback
implementing feedback from the team
Inherent diversity is only half of the equation. Acquired diversity is needed to establish a culture in which all employees feel free to
contribute ideas. Psychological safety is crucial to a team’s success.
LEADERS WHO GIVE DIVERSE VOICES EQUAL AIRTIME ARE NEARLY TWICE AS LIKELY AS
OTHERS TO UNLEASH VALUE-DRIVING INSIGHTS, AND EMPLOYEES IN A „SPEAK UP“
CULTURE ARE 3.5 TIMES AS LIKELY TO CONTRIBUTE THEIR FULL INNOVATIVE
POTENTIAL
UNCONSCIOUS BIAS PREVENTS ANY OBJECTIVE ASSESSMENTS AND DECISION-
