Why has it taken so long for the world ' s developed economies to grow after a deep recession ? What are the keys to solving major problems and to grow economies ? It seems the means are there , but not the will to understand how we must go about realizing more from the vast human and technical capacity available today . We posit that the path to improvement is for more individuals and organizations to innovate ; that is , to improve effectiveness and efficiency in all they do . This improvement starts and ends with individual mindsets . This paper addresses these issues in a novel and non - academic way . We do this in large part to stress a point that must be made in order for academics to become and remain innovative . This paper enhances readers ' ability to recognize and adapt personal and organizational mindsets toward clearer thinking in order to identify and realize more innovative opportunities . The ideas presented are intended to provoke thinking so that readers learn to rapidly continuously and incrementally achieve the innovation imperative both individually and organizationally .
