The Heart of Innovation blog has a list of fifty ways to foster innovation in your organization. Here are some of my favorites:

4. Always question authority, especially the authority of your own longstanding beliefs.

9. Ask questions about everything. After asking questions, ask different questions. After asking different questions, ask them in a different way.

14. Embrace and celebrate failure. 50 to 70 per cent of all new product innovations fail at even the most successful companies. The main difference between companies who succeed at innovation and those who don’t isn’t their rate of success—it’s the fact that successful companies have a LOT of ideas, pilots, and product innovations in the pipeline.

Tons of resources about innovation.
