Innovate or die slideshow

by Matthew Stibbe on December 3, 2009

I really like this presentation from North Venture Partners. It works as a self-presenting presentation. The amount of text per slide is just right if you don’t have someone speaking over it and yet it still uses the kind of arresting images that I like to see on slides. (You’ll have to click the full screen button to read it on this blog, though). It also works as a thought-provoking guide to innovation. It lists ten fails. You’ll have to watch the presentation to see what the solutions are.

  1. Veering off by staying on course
  2. Falling in love with your own voice
  3. Relying on one revenue stream
  4. Don’t act desperate or you’ll get dumped
  5. Going ‘back to basics’
  6. Betting everything on the brand (don’t forget the product)
  7. Launching ‘me too’ brands
  8. Slow to respond to market shifts
  9. Teaming with a bloated AOR
  10. Behave like a start-up

    I expect your company firewall is preventing the Flash file from downloading that is needed to view the presentation. Try going to Slideshare and viewing it there.
