The Idea Program Toolkit
Most innovation resources tell you what good looks like. These tell you what to actually do. Each guide in this library is built around a specific problem you are probably dealing with right now: writing a challenge that gets relevant ideas, evaluating 100 submissions without losing a weekend, giving feedback that keeps people engaged instead of pushing them away. Pick the one that is most urgent and start there.
Before you launch
Get your campaign set up properly. The decisions you make before anyone submits an idea will shape everything that follows.
While the campaign is running
Keep participation high without extending deadlines, chasing people, or bribing anyone.
After submissions close
Turn a pile of ideas into a short list of decisions. Fast, fair, and documented.
After the decision
Close the loop with everyone who participated. This is the part that determines whether your next campaign works.

Proving it's working
Measure what matters, report what's real, and make the case to leadership without overselling.
When something feels off
Start here if participation is dropping, implementation is stalling, or you cannot figure out why the program is not producing results.
Don't leave great ideas behind.
