Catalyzing innovation and collaboration in the organization with Social Media
This location is shown only to members
Abstract: “Innovation” is a top strategic priority for organizations across the globe, but few are happy with their results. Innovative ideas frequently falter as they make their way from concept to market. Tollgate sessions, review meetings, and well-intentioned managers tend to squash the very innovations they are trying to help. What’s an organization to do?
At Intuit, we turned to social media. This talk will tell the story of what’s happened to innovation at Intuit over the past year. By embracing social media tools for innovation, Intuit has dramatically increased its rate of ideation by 1,000% – ultimately leading to more new offerings in market.
Bio: Tad Milbourn is responsible for managing Intuit Brainstorm, Intuit’s online innovation catalyst. In his time at Intuit, Tad has worked to change mindset in regards to innovation at all levels of the company. Through thought leadership and evangelizing Intuit Brainstorm, Tad has helped to increase ideation, reduce product time-to-market, and engage employees in innovation. Tad received his undergraduate degree in management from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
As usual gourmet dinner and wine are included.

MarymacGreat topic -- very useful to organizations.
Intuit is leading the way. The speaker Tad Milbourn was very polished, very good at leading group discussion regarding his new product to manage innovation, Brainstorm. I was impressed from start to finish.
Look forward to learning more new things at the next CIO meetup. Thanks, Tatyana!

Tatyana did it again. Fantastic presentation. Great speaker who was passionate and very knowledgeable--having been involved with Intuit's Brainstorm tool for innovation--from Day 1. Can't beat this deal: Very informative and interesting, and interactive presentation, plus dinner and wine, and you might be able to win a box of chocolate. Keep up the GREAT work, Tatyana.
