Companies invest a lot of time and effort to design the best teams for leadership development, team building andtalent recruitment but no such scientific efforts are made to develop top notch teams to execute business innovation. The latter is a specialized ability and very few professionals possess qualities to see them through. Some tests are available to gauge this ability and such personality types once assessed have on average during studies proved to be ninety five times more profitable. Divergent thinking, empathy and emotional stability are three character traits such people must possess. Data can be used to gauge these qualities. Google has derived data from its Project Aristotle to identify innovators within their ranks.
