Money No Comments »

The bad news: the best ideas live outside of your organization. The good news: they don’t have to stay there. Innovation instigator Michael Ringel has consulted for major corporations about the best ways to bring innovation into their companies and has a collaborative solution that any company — if done the right way — can tap into: external innovation.
