When You Can’t Entre, Intra & 3M Knows How It Works.


With a multitude of vocabularies, terminologies and models, in action, it’s the pizza man model that remains: a team large enough to eat one large pizza together and be satisfied. But how can this be done easily? 


Anything more and there are too many people for the 1st critical juncture of any innovation mindshift. In particular and very carefully articulated in Innovation at 3M Corporation we see the simplicity in relying heavily on selecting a talented core team of 4to 6 people (and even 6 is too mich) from marketing and technical departments. At 12 to 15 hours/week immersion fosters creative thought and maximum momentum with each person spending 1/2of their time on the project. The rest of the time, it’s other projects in the pipline and keeping the emersion going.
