"Innovation is P&G’s lifeblood. Without it we will fail. The P&G we’re trying to unleash today asks all 100,000-plus of us to be innovators. We actively solicit new ideas, and if the concept is promising, we put it into development."
A.G. Lafley, CEO,
Procter and Gamble |

"No country in the world has enough jobs. There’s too much global capacity and not enough great ideas … so every company has to make growth their primary charter. Without innovation, you can’t survive. Without it, GE won’t see the next 100 years."
Jeffrey Immelt, CEO,
General Electric |

"If you want to make the assumption that innovative ideas will somehow surface and get done without a process for reviewing them, then you’re welcome to it. What we’re trying to point out is that a formal process not only evaluates, but also encourages the formation of those ideas."
Edward Reilly, Chief Executive Officer
