Create free exercises on Harvard Case Material site.

The Harvard educator site is my go to spot for great learner centered activities and teaching cases. What if it offered a free exercise or two that would give educators a way to integrate the mix into their classroom or exec ed. Perhaps some questions requiring students to research something...

Put the MIX Into Practice

Here's a crazy idea: What if you turned the MIX community into a community of real-life problem solvers. Organizations (maybe non-profits) could post their challenges to the MIX and the community could then work collaboratively to help solve each problem using the tools and innovative thinking provided on the MIX....

Hack Podcast for MIXers on the Move

The podcast format is great for busy professionals. Audio programs travel well, and they're great for playing while exercising, relaxing, or performing other activities. The format could be simple Q&A style with hosts interviewing authors of hacks that have already proven popular and useful on the MIX site. Episodes could...

Why not a BOOK? a FREE BOOK!

There's a great amount of content here to make a world class FREE e-book (or charge 10c and give it to charity) Almost like the best of the MiX for the year. While all of the content is available online, putting this on bookshelves will make it larger than life....

Talk the new language...

The art of sitting down and penning one's thoughts in lucid prose is fast dying! High-Impact content in the Twitter age is no more than a paragraph in most people's dictionaries... If the MIX is to reach more people (who increasingly don't have time to do anything other than work-work-work!)...

Amplify our Applicability Action as Proof the MIX Works

I find a great deal of fantastic content on the MIX. I enjoy the interchanges with other MIXers. What's absent are the success stories. Evidence where some one (or company/organization) has taken any one or a number of the ideas posted at the MIX and found it to work,...

Make MIX, as the one stop “Universal Insightopedia” of the world!

Before getting to my idea part – let me set the stage first. With resources happen to be the weakest link within this planet earth’s performance (or even universe), it is a no brainer that the value of our planet earth is, as good as its weakest link only. In...

The MIX Toolshed

Whenever I'm in discussions with people about management innovation, people are very interested in the work that has been done on MIX, and I encourage them to read and learn about new principles and ideas. This is positive, but in a busy workday — people don't really have the time...

MIX “Academy” featuring on-line courses and tools

While the content currently on the MIX can inspire would-be management innovators, we think that it’s equally important to equip people with the the tools/frameworks to drive management innovation on the ground. Taking a cue from the MOOC (Massively Open Online Course) movement, the MIX could offer its own courses...

Greater and more frequent “packaging” of the best content

There is a lot of good content on the MIX in terms of stories, hacks, blogs, videos, and other editorial insights. But it can be hard to find the best content on a particular topic, or to draw out the key lessons across different contributions to the MIX. We think...
