Open Innovation vs Team Player?

I set up a Google Alert for Open Innovation to try and keep track of OI news and happenings.  Mostly I get articles and blog posts, but sometimes some odd stuff comes through the filter.

In today’s alert I got a link to a Yahoo Answers page where someone has to give a presentation at work and is asking which would be better, a presentation on “open innovation benefits or how to be a good team player?”  I get the feeling that neither choice will have great results, call it a hunch.

If you really want to hear about the inside stories of Open Innovation from the companies with the most experience, the best place of course is at CoDev 2012.
