Change the way you ask for help (DRAFT)
DRAFT! Work in progress, feedback welcome! See the first comment for some specific questions
Revised version to appear on The Ideators’ Journey, kicking off a series on collaboration and innovation, perhaps as two posts.
Eve’s Ask for help makes a great introduction to a series that Mikal Lewis and I will be kicking off on collaboration. Eve, Michael, Mikal, and many of the other people you’ll see participating in this series met on the Ad Astra (Analysis and Development of Awesome STRAtegies) project I led at Microsoft.
During this series, we’ll apply approaches from Change the Way you see Innovation to a real-world problem: designing a free web-based collaboration tool, while simultaneously exploring business opportunities in this space. In this post, I’ll lay out an initial scenario, and Mikal will take it from there. First though a little background for people joining our journey in progress.
