Leaps of faith
At 3M, innovation has been built into the company culture. For example, technical staff are encouraged to spend 15% of their time working on their own ideas that they hope will one day become new products for the company. Not only do they get time off to pursue these ideas, but they can also get money to buy equipment or even hire extra help.
For an idea to get accepted at 3M, it must first win the personal backing of at least one member of the main board. If it received backing, then a team of researches, engineers, marketers and accountants would be set up to push the idea further. But employees do not need to be afraid of failure. At 3M , the corporate hero is the one who continues against all the odds to create a successful innovation from an idea everyone thought silly.
A shining example is 3M's Art Fry. He realised that the sticky, but removable, piece of coloured paper he used to mark his place in his book had a wider use for writing reminder letters. The special adhesive used was already a failed innovation because at the time no one saw any use for a glue that did not dry. The difference was in the creative way Mr Fry persuaded the top brass to adopt his idea. First, he made up a batch of sticky little yellow reminder pads and distributed them to secretaries, knowing they were the best networkers in the company. Just by using the product daily as they left reminder notes for their bosses, the secretaries ensured that it got noticed by senior managers. Then, when everyone was hooked on the reminder pads, Mr Fry stopped handing them out. There would be no more, he insisted, unless the product got officially launched. Today, the "Post-It" note is one of 3M's biggest sellers.
