Are you creating a culture of continuous improvement for your team or company? It’s not enough to say that we want to be innovative; you must have the right processes, systems, attitudes and behaviours in place. In fact, working with different-sized organisations, as well as through our obsession with tales of continuous improvement, we’ve collated 22 reasons businesses fail at creating the culture needed for innovation to thrive. The factors range from mindset to business structure and the resources a business is willing to allocate to innovation. What have we missed?

🔧 Culture Fuels Strategy in Industry 🔧 In manufacturing and operations, strategy may set our direction, but it’s our culture that drives us forward every single day. In the fast-paced industrial world, this couldn’t be more true. Why? Because even the best-laid plans and strategies are only as good as the people carrying them out. When a strong culture is in place—one that values collaboration, resilience, and a commitment to excellence—it’s like a well-oiled machine. Here’s how: 🌟 Resilience Over Resistance: Change is constant in industry. New processes, lean initiatives, and technology upgrades need a culture that supports agility. When people feel empowered and trusted, they’re not just adapting to change; they’re leading it. 👥 Safety & Quality as Core Values: In a plant, safety and quality aren’t just protocols—they’re commitments. A culture that prioritizes these values builds trust on the floor and confidence in the product, creating a solid foundation for any strategy to succeed. 🚀 Innovation Beyond the Blueprint: Strategy may outline the next steps, but it’s our culture that encourages out-of-the-box thinking and continuous improvement. When employees feel they can contribute ideas without fear, innovation thrives, and strategies come to life in ways we couldn’t imagine on paper. So, hero of every successful operation: a strong, aligned culture that drives strategy from the ground up. I’m always reminded of the phrase, “Culture eats strategy for breakfast.”...
