Is your Dr. prescribing Apps? If not she should be.
Dr. Eric Topol, based at San Diego, Scripps Hospital, is one of the most innovative thinkers out there.
Listen to what Dr. Topol has to say, he doesn’t think best practice, he thinks NEXT practice, as all innovators should.

As we suggested a few weeks ago, “walking away” is a great strategy for accelerating the ah ha. Here are a few more ideas on how to spark the flames of creativity.
Studies actually show a link between the color green, creativity, and clarity. If you want to think creatively…surround yourself with the color green!
When you let your mind drift it can clear a path to inspiration. Whether it’s daydreaming, a change of scenery, or doing something mindless or routine, letting your mind wander is a useful strategy.
A lot of great ideas happen at transition times. Falling asleep; just waking; showering; jogging; or driving home after a long day can lead to the long awaited ah ha. Keeping a note book or smart phone nearby is a good idea.
And although it may seem counter intuitive, try to confuse your brain. If you’re a morning person, try thinking about your challenge in the evening. If you’re a night owl you may gain a fresh and better perspective by tackling it in the morning.
If creativity is your goal, break your routine.

Lululemon Athletica, it is not just a store, it’s a lifestyle. Christine Day, CEO and her team of brand ambassadors are disrupting the retail experience (it’s stores sell for nearly $2000/sq.ft).
Lululemon wants to inspire healthy communities by being a hub of conversation, connection, engagement and overall well-being (fit body and mind).
Most retailers sell a brand this way; “Come into our stores, buy, wear, use our stuff and Be Cool.”
LuLulemon is selling a brand identity with an innovative twist. At Lululemon, the brand says, “You’re pretty cool already, we want to be your partner in bringing out your best possible self.” In store community boards provide conversation hubs for yoga classes, running clubs, goal setting workshops, and aspirational postings.
Since obesity is on the rise and engagement and connection are on the decline, we think Lululemon is innovating in the right direction. What can you do to create a hub of conversation to innovate around well-being, engagement and loyalty?

We just completed a day long event with Tampa General Hospital (TGH) entitled “NUTS About the Patient Experience.”
So often the routine of our day blinds us to the little things that matter! And when we lift off the blinders and NOTICE, we are more likely to discover powerful service innovations that create great experiences.
Innovation is key to enhancing the patient experience, customer experience and guest experience, alike. Watch this 4 min video with your team, it demonstrates the power of empathy as a tool for innovation.
What do you need to NOTICE (see, hear and feel more clearly) so you too, can come up with subtle, but powerful service innovation in your company?
