Implementation does not just have to sit with the most senior members of an organization. If it has their approval, depending on the idea, anyone in the business can be given the responsibility to manage its implementation. It is often a nice touch to ensure that the original innovator, who put forward the idea in the first place, can get involved so they can see their lightbulb moment come to fruition.
Involve as many people as possible and ensure awareness throughout the company so that staff can be prepared for any change and help make the execution process as smooth as possible.
