At the same time, 3 minutes a day of exposure to "innovation fatigue factors" built into many corporate cultures (see InnovationFatigue.com) can erase many hours of zealous innovaion efforts. Sometimes very small things make all the difference--like a cup of water added to a large tank of gasoline, or a tiny parasite added to your blood stream. Innovation is a delicate flower that is easily trampled unless management and others are in touch with the "voice of the innovator" and understand the journey and its barriers
