Under the best circumstances, innovation is an uncertain endeavor. Developing a new product may take months, even years. It can involve many different tasks, different people, and different competences. Many things can go wrong. Ideas may not come when they are needed. It may be difficult to find funds or the people needed to develop the product. Development may be slowed by technical problems or by coordination problems if more than a few people are involved.
