Find opportunities to share the ideas with your child. It is tempting to be dictatorial, but far better to discuss or suggest. “Have your ever considered that . . . ?” is a good way to start. The discussions should be informal. Look for natural opportunities. This will require you to be always alert and ready.

Clayton Christensen’s The Innovator’s Dilemma has helped frame an entire decade of thinking on innovation. His taxonomy of radical/incremental//sustaining/disruptive, despite being very widely misunderstood, has been the filter through which all of the popular innovation literature has been viewed in recent years.
