Does innovation drives strategy, or does a change in strategy drive innovation?

Innovative leadership needs, seeks and desires a way to envision or describe the organization's innovation strategy. In more ways than this one specific instance, today's leaders resemble their traditional counterparts.

If they can model or otherwise map their innovation strategy, they can better experiment with it, put it to the test, stretch its limits and communicate it to others.

"Prayer does not change God, but it changes him who prays."
- Soren Kierkegaard

Stated another way, strategy is not what changes, it is we who use the strategy to encourage, energize, enlighten, engage, extend and empower ourselves to achieve its ends.

The sole purposes for modeling your innovation strategy are to focus you on, guide you into and reveal the granular yet measurable details of your strategic intentions.

Every innovation strategy must give innovative leaders the means to accomplish three crucial things: 1) Direct all activities 2) Develop all resources 3) Discipline all players

therefore innovation changes strategy
