Where Great Ideas Really Come From (Hint: It’s the Small Stuff)

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HERE

Are you a law firm owner who does not know what to do with ideas that stem from conversations from your team? In this episode of The Guild Live Show, Tyson Mutrux explores the concept of "sparks" — those small moments or ideas that ignite creativity and innovation.

Tyson shares how sparks can lead to innovation for a firm. In moments of conversation and sometimes friction, sparks can come up through realization. Maybe someone challenges a belief or some personal irritation is expressed to a group of people. They can be created in a few different ways in a team setting.

It is important to know when to execute or abandon sparks. Maybe executing a spark makes sense when you have a strong team dynamic. Maybe you need to plan in order to execute the spark, especially if you or the team don’t have the capacity. But, sometimes abandoning the spark is better when you realize it is not a possibility at all for your firm.
