If your company has little innovation experience, this assessment helps jumpstart your organization’s ability to quickly gather, test, and deploy new ideas to stay ahead of the competition.
If your company does have innovation experience, the assessment will help you strengthen your innovation efforts, increase the speed of your innovation process, and improve the overall success rate of your innovation outcomes.
Not all organizations are the same, let alone have the ability to innovate as Google or Amazon do. Based on your organizational characteristics, we provide you with a recommendation for the innovation infrastructure that will suit your organization best.
The weakest links in any process are responsible for most of the problems and failures. We help you identify these weak links in your innovation process, and provide recommendations for how to strengthen them.
Depending on the infrastructure, we recommend you a set of innovation metrics that will help you to create and sustain a high-performance innovation engine.
Our portfolio analysis will help you accurately identify and eliminate products in diminishing markets that are draining resources, and redistribute those resources to the rapid development of successful products in growing sectors.
In order to successfully prioritize and implement digital transformation organization-wide, board-level support is often needed. Such support is necessary to fuel investments in leadership, culture, and change management in order to realize true, transformative business results.
