Why Open Innovation is important to drive change

Just finished a workshop with a team of leaders from public sector.  In my presentation material I had a picture of the wheels, building from the standard in powerpoint.  I went through the drivers in the innovation engine needed in public service, and was happy with my preperation and the dialouge in the room. Then I was pushed down from the mountain top of sucess, with a minor question.  Have you looked at the wheels ?  Yes. Well, can you tell me how that enigne will run, the wheels are wrong. This engine would crack up and not work.  And he was right. Take a look yourself, and start correcting your powerpoints, because this is borned out of standard figures.

Hmm... Nope!

The lowest and largest cog is not engaged with the top-most small cog as one would assume. Notice that only the cogs that drive each other are engaged/interlocked.

Were there engineers in the room or just wannabe engineers -- wanting to find fault :-)

Support francis on this one! It will work, it will require high tolerances

The engine would not break down as the largest and smallest are not engaged.
