Theme: Teams and Innovation
Read:The Innovator's DNA, Chapters 7-9, and an article on successful teams (they could be from sports, the military, business, or your industry).
Assignment: Synthesis and critical thinking. Teams can be a powerful force for producing innovation but at the same time can hinder innovation. Synthesize these three things: the most meaningful part of the text reading for you, the article you read on successful teams, and an experience of your own. From these sources develop a conclusion about the best ways to empower teams for successful innovation. This paper should be approximately 3-6 pages in length. Use correct APA format, including a cover page, in-text citations, and a reference page. You may write in the first person. Submit this assignment to Blackboard Assignments.
