Innovation

Every Company has to deliver on the following four aspects, to be truly innovative. With our experience, we can help you master all four.

Managing Investment & Portfolio

Investing in the right ideas is essential to generate higher profit faster. But there are many uncertainties and it’s easy to get paralyzed by long initial analysis of business cases and risks.

We can help you:

  • Focus on the critical decisions and implement rapid learning to get the ideas moving

  • Set the right strategy, build the right methodologies and ensure all the right people are onboard from idea to profit

  • Build efficient metrics, visualize risks and opportunities that allow you to make the necessary changes or pivots proactively along the way

Whether you are a small innovative company or large corporation, we can be with you all the way until your profit is secured.

Resource Management

Many organizations fail to allocate resources to the highest priorities, spread them thin over too many tasks and the efficiency of the people is lost to overhead of task switching. As a result, projects finish late, costs go up and quality suffers

Resource management is a balance, however, and depending on your organization it’s essential to find the right balance of:

  • Dedicated vs flexible teams

  • Centralized, deep specialists vs project generalists

  • Tool data detail vs overhead of maintaining

Organization

There are 3 main parameters when setting up an organization to deliver innovation effectively:

  • Growth strategy and anchoring

  • Organizational culture

  • Competences and decision making

Some companies benefit from dedicated and deep teams while others benefit from innovation being integrated into the mindset and competencies of every employee. In the end, what is most important is what enables your people to effectively bring ideas to profit.

Through many years of building and leading innovation organizations, we can help you set the right goals and make the right decisions to get yours delivering successfully on your ambitions.
