Hello, I am a kinesthetic learner, in order for me to grasp and understand concepts, I am trying to understand the concept of fluid and flexible.

Today, many organizations are taking a more fluid and flexible approach to developing modern technologies. For example, Elmer's makes a variety of products, including famous, white glue. To support innovation, their leadership organized a cross-functional team from several different departments within their company to submit ideas rather than hiring a team of researchers and scientists. This type of approach can sometimes feel more chaotic and uncertain; however, many companies do this because it facilitates rapid change.

1. How does the organization foster a culture of innovation? Are specific teams organized to create new processes or innovations, or do ideas come from the frontline staff?
2. How does the leader play a role in fostering a culture of innovation within the team?
3. If you were to take on a role as a leader within your organization or the organization you researched, what practices would you implement to drive an innovative culture?
