Blueprint for Leadership Support

Define how leaders will support your innovation ecosystem

In world class organizations, leaders ensure that:

  • Strategic innovation guidance is provided at important meetings, and everyone knows it,
  • Resources for innovation are institutionalized and leaders commit at least 40% of their time to innovation,
  • The organization pioneers and invests in a large innovation pipeline of small bets of which the best get follow-up investments.

During the codesign process we will facilitate decision-making on elements you need to put in place or change in your context to achieve the level of leadership support you aim for (e.g. an Innovation Board, Metered Funding, Strategic Guidance documentation, etc.)

Blueprint for Organization Design

Prototype how your organization design will reinforce your innovation ecosystem

World class organizations are designed in a way that ensures that:

  • Innovation is at the very top of the org chart and has power and influence
  • Clear policies are in place that help innovation teams and the core business collaborate as equal partners
  • Innovation has a dedicated incentive system that rewards experimentation and new value creation

During the codesign process we will facilitate decision-making on elements you need to put in place or change in your organization design to move towards that level of organizational support to innovation (e.g. appointment of Chief Entrepreneur, definition of innovation career path, business rules to access core business customers, etc.)

Blueprint for Innovation Practice

Design improvements of your innovation practice

World class organizations have developed an innovation practice where:

  • Business model, lean startup, or design thinking tools are widely adopted and mastered,
  • Processes are optimized for innovation and the organization systematically measures the reduction of risk in new ideas,
  • The organization hires and develops world-class innovation talent with extensive experience across the organization
