It is crucial to combine learnings from all areas and convert this into a vision and direction that the team should pursue, and this is exactly what the 49ers have done and are continuing to do. We\u2019ll explore the processes instilled to bring success back to San Francisco.<\/h4>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Key takeaways<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 There\u2019s a lot of low hanging fruit for people to get out there and start innovating. It\u2019s not just about who you know, it\u2019s about what you know.<br \/>\n\u2022 At the 49ers, they want to be agnostic and try in an empirical way to think about the best way to approach interviews. They want to get away from the bog-standard interview questions, and instead find out what type of leader you are \u2013 what\u2019s your vision? How do you hold yourself accountable?<br \/>\n\u2022 Don\u2019t be innovative for the sake of being innovative. What\u2019s important is being open-minded. It\u2019s not just about the right answer, but about getting to the right place, the right way.<br \/>\n\u2022 Look outside the box. The 49ers are lucky enough to have Silicon Valley on their doorstep, and innovation is innovation. Whether it\u2019s sport, tech or retail, you have to spend time learning from other organisations and industries.<br \/>\n\u2022 Communicating a new ideas is as important as the idea itself. Paraag said he\u2019d take a 7\/10 piece of analysis that was communicated at an A+ level, over a 10\/10 piece of analysis that isn\u2019t communicated well \u2013 because it will never get used.<br \/>\n\u2022 As a leader, you should encourage and reward solution-seeking. In a successful innovative culture, there are problem-solvers who are finding solutions in creative ways. They should be highlighted.<br \/>\n\u2022 Do you foster an innovative network within your organisation? If not, why not? Give your people the opportunity to share stories and ideation, and connect them with like-minded people to help solved performance challenges.<br \/>\n\u2022 In an ideal world, innovation shouldn\u2019t have to be spoken about. It should just happen. You need to integrate it into your culture \u2013 tell good stories to share success internally, and externally.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                            \n                            \n                            \n                                                    <\/div>\n                                        <div class=\"col visibly-hidden col--flex-align-right\">\n                                            <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The second Summit Session on day two of the 2018 Leaders Sport Performance Summit at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2644,"menu_order":0,"template":"","categories":[21,20,33],"pathway":[],"topic":[],"sport":[],"class_list":["post-2643","vlog","type-vlog","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-human-performance","category-leadership-culture-performance","category-summit-session"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 -
