When making investments in innovation, leaders often falsely assume that they can pick the winning ideas on day one. But the uncertainty of innovation makes it impossible to know exactly which ideas are going to win.
Our work with Bosch has shown that it is better to make many small bets and then allow the winning ideas and teams to emerge by creating the right context.
