(Entrepreneur) — Hard to believe, but according to the learned folks at the National Bureau of Economic Research, the economy’s been in recovery since June 2009. Unfortunately, a big reason for the stagnation so far has been, well, you. Tons of people–71 percent, says a recent survey by Discover Small BusinessWatch–are waiting for economic indicators to rise before they’re willing to hire and spend. But waiting around is ill-advised, maintains Eric Jackson, innovation specialist and VP of research and development at Gap International, a global management consulting firm in Philadelphia. “The world is screaming for innovation, and companies can capitalize on the resources they already have to spark the next possibilities.”
