Frank,
I enjoyed reading your article on innovation in architecture.
I find myself in the mirror image of your reflections: I work with people to help them realize their potential for leadership in the practice of collaborative innovation. I help them to architect innovation, as opposed to innovating architecture.
I have found, over time, that the practices that define architecture apply well to the practice of collaborative innovation, at large: having a vision, yet, at the same time, having a willingness to experiment with ways to achieve that vision through drawing and modeling.
“Design thinking” is likely not a foreign concept in your world.
By way of concrete example, I have introduced the concept of the blueprint as architectural metaphor as a way to conceive of and articulate one’s story around the practice of collaborative innovation…
