Innovate while you work

Credit: Anonymous, Lomza/Gdansk, Podlaskie, PolandWhen I joined my present company, I was a part of a team. My team included two HRs, few web-designers, few developers and testers along with a team leader and a project manager, like any team in a typical IT company. Most of the things were handled in an unplanned manner and the To-Do list was just a messed up list. No deadlines, no targets and sometimes no tasks clearly defined. Staff just looked tired and occupied by fatigue due to lack of interest. Our boss often commented: "Don't do donkey work", but the staff didn't follow and continued with their donkey work.
I started finding ways to try to improve the way we collaborate and the way other things were handled in our office. I wanted to simplify things and make work interesting for me and others too. While coming and leaving office, ideas filled my mind and I started thinking of a concept, I named: Innovation at Work.
But how and what to innovate?
