Culture of innovation

Been developing the conversation with my client in New York - slowly but surely moving forward with the Appreciative Inquiry and Complexity thinking based project to develop a culture more conducive to innovation and high human engagement.
This organisation, like many others, has been implementing processes and policies for innovation, whilst maintaining their normal, rather risk averse approaches to the general day to day cultural experience. Following a number of teleconf calls, and more recently another meeting in New York in October, we have started to explore some new ideas about innovation and engagement.
The first connection we were drawing on, is the link that Barbara Fredrickson of the University of South Carolina makes between certain positive emotional states and the capacity and tendency to innovate.
