In this episode, Kevin talks with Lorraine Marchand about why innovation so often stalls inside teams and organizations, even when leaders claim it is a top priority. Lorraine explains that the real barrier is not a lack of ideas, but a culture that punishes failure instead of treating it as experimentation and learning. They discuss the gap between intention and action, the different types of organizational innovation mindsets, and the leadership practices that help create environments where people feel safe to contribute, test, and grow. Lorraine also shares the five principles that support sustainable innovation (culture, customer focus, chance, collaboration, and change), offering practical insight for leaders at the organization level and the individual level.
