Six best innovation practices to engage Millennials and Gen Zers
All businesses are created first by ideas. Then, once you are in business, you need new thinking for design, engineering, radical improvement, manufacturing, marketing, advertising, problem-solving, customer retention, etc. Often the difference between success or failure in business is a simple idea.

Generation Z and innovation in the workplace
