The trust of many in a system that has been the most spectacular generator of innovation in history was damaged by the unbridled greed of a few. At Boeing, Alan Mulally was hired right out of college as an engineer and went on to become its CEO before becoming the chief executive at Ford.

Such communities are particularly useful in recruitment, hiring, talent development, or in defining employee retention policies. If communities of origin and growth are bonded by perceptions of sameness, communities of aspiration are held together by the differences between their members.

Organizational agility, innovation, and growth are really difficult without engaged employees. For example, a CEO of a beverage company, asked to name the most important responsibility of a leader, said it was “to create the emotional bond between our people and the organization.” Develop engaging leaders.

We have found that when this process works well, marketing often takes on an expanded role by, for example, providing sales with data analytics and by supporting the development and testing of sales plays for a specific micromarket or customer peer group.

For all of the fervor around innovation, far too many organizations are hostile places for new ideas and the people who harbor them. All too often, new ideas are cooked up in a hothouse environment, like the executive inner sanctum or an invitation-only innovation offsite, and not shared widely until they've been sanctioned from on high.

Then we got talking about the odometer on my Nissan Pathfinder: Is a car that can go 300,000 miles a case of over-engineering or TQM excellence? You develop the Case Method third eye. Can a product placement in a movie undermine brand credibility — eg, would James Bond really drink Heineken?

In Atlanta — against all local custom and odds — ten counties and the business community came together to promote an historic $8 billion bond issuance and regional tax increase to address the fact that people who need jobs can't get them. Often, this means thinking beyond individual projects to whole solutions and big, bold ideas.

Like most things, building and maintaining your social media footprint should be engineered by design, but the truth is that most people allow it to be constructed by default. Remember that connections are not the same thing as relationships, but that connections can develop into relationships with the proper effort on your part.

Campbell’s work has also made liberal use of the analytic tools developed by Hansen. Back in the ‘60s, people developed the capital asset pricing model [CAPM] as a way to do that.
