All companies, no matter the size, need to continually innovate in order to remain competitive. Innovation is a two-part challenge. The first part is coming up with the big idea. The second part is executing it. To thrive, you need to succeed at both.

A: In my work as an executive coach, I only get paid if my clients achieve a positive, lasting change in behavior - not as judged by themselves, but as determined by their key stakeholders. Given my pay-only-for-results philosophy, it doesn't make much sense for me to waste time with clients who are not going to improve.
