Q

What are Google’s three simple rules to help nurture and scale a culture of innovation?

A
Answer:
1) Focus on the user
--Focus on the user
has two dimensions:
01 Who they are—paying
customers, those outside
the business and employees.
02 What they expect

2) Think 10X
–10X thinking is about generating big
ideas. It’s about transformation over
improvement and using technology
to achieve that transformation.
Improvement projects help make
things better by perhaps 10%.

3) Launch and iterate
–Launch and iterate is both a mindset and a practice where, instead of starting off with a perfect
solution, you figure it out through experimentations.
