Lame Excuses for Not Innovating

Thanks to a tweet sent out by D.J. Chuang, I found The Top 100 Lamest Excuses for Not Innovating in 2009.

1. I don’t have the time.
2. I can’t get the funding.
3. My boss will never go for it.
4. Were not in the kind of business likely to innovate.
5. We won’t be able to get it past legal.
6. I’ve got too much on my plate.
7. I’ll be punished if I fail.
8. I’m just not not the creative type.
9. I’m already juggling way too many projects.
10. I’m too new around here.
