When discussing incentives, it is best to avoid simply classifying employees as "Henan people" or other regional stereotypes, because everyone has unique personalities and strengths. However, you can consider how to combine pragmatism to encourage innovation. Here are some suggestions: 1. Clarify the vision and goals of combining pragmatism and innovation • Explain that innovation is not just a wild idea, but also a pragmatic means to improve processes, increase efficiency and reduce risks. • Emphasize the direct role of innovation in promoting corporate performance, so that everyone can see the tangible returns brought by innovation. 2. Establish a cultural environment that supports trial and error • Create a mechanism for experimentation and feedback so that employees dare to come up with new ideas and conduct small-scale experiments. • Be tolerant of failures in trying new methods and encourage continuous improvement. 3. Design an incentive mechanism that matches pragmatism • Establish a reward system linked to project results, such as bonuses, promotion opportunities, honorary recognition, etc. • Pay attention to both innovative ideas and quantifiable benefits achieved through innovation in rewards, so that pragmatism and innovative results complement each other. 4. Provide a platform for cross-departmental cooperation and knowledge sharing • Organize cross-departmental seminars or workshops to allow people from different backgrounds and professions to communicate and cooperate, thereby inspiring new ideas. • Encourage employees to share their experiences and successful cases summarized in practice, so that innovative methods can be continuously improved in practice. 5. Strengthen skills training and coaching • Through systematic training courses and project coaching, help employees master innovative thinking tools and methods, so that they know how to transform pragmatic experience into innovative advantages. • Invite internal or external experts to give lectures and share practical cases of combining pragmatism with innovation. 6. Establish a clear project management mechanism • Introduce phased reviews and milestone assessments in project management, allowing new ideas to be tried under the premise of clear and controllable risks, and ensuring that the innovation process does not deviate from actual work goals. • Allow employees to have a certain degree of autonomy in the project to give full play to their individual creativity, while also retaining necessary management and risk control. In short, on the basis of respecting pragmatic working methods, companies can encourage employees to be innovative through cultural construction, system design, training and other measures, while combining innovation with tangible results, so that everyone can see the positive impact of their efforts on the company's performance. This way, employees, regardless of their background, are more motivated to engage in projects in more innovative ways.
