Innovate!

Change: It’s been happening on since the beginning of time. Still, doesn’t it seem surprising when the economy takes a little dip, a new competitor moves down the block, or a market dries up and completely disappears?

In a world that is becoming less hierarchical and more fluid, flexibility is a must. Consider the great innovators of the past 150 years; most of them have taken a general-use item or idea and added a new twist. John Deere took a standard plow and made it self-scouring, Edison took the idea behind telegraph and innovated the phonograph. Bill Gates didn’t invent the PC, but found a way to expand the software business beyond even his own expectations.

Think about your place in the construction sector, do you really need to follow the feast-or-famine cycle of the industry, or is there a way to innovate and break out of the mold?
