Product details

An innovation strategy in business is defined as a commitment to a common innovation mission and a structured set of activities designed to support the future growth of an organization. No two innovation strategies are the same. But they should all, at the very least, outline the goal of an organization’s innovation activities and define the key initiatives that will help it achieve that goal. Good innovation strategies are simple, clear, and easily understood by everybody involved. To determine what already works well and what needs further improvement, you will first need to audit the effectiveness of your current innovation capabilities and identify areas for improvement. An innovation audit is a way to go. Use the innovation landscape tool to determine the innovation types you are aiming for now and in the future. The 3 horizons of the model tool allow you to explore and define time-based growth expectations. Use it to indicate and communicate when the return on your innovation (ROI) will materialize. Use the innovation mission map to outline where you want to go and why. Analyse key internal and external drivers influencing your innovation strategy. Innovating corporate strategies could include the following considerations – what services or products need to be reinvented or developed; what markets to compete in; what business models to develop; how to optimize business processes; how to expand the customer base; how to position the company’s brand in relation to target customers; how to make the supply chain and value chain more efficient; and go-to-market strategy. Although strategic innovation initiatives are led by senior leaders, they need to foster a culture of innovation that encourages collaboration across business teams and functions. Innovation strategies can be classified as active, proactive, reactive, and passive. Companies with proactive innovation strategies tend to have strong research orientation and first-mover advantage to be a technology market leader. Active innovation includes defending existing markets and technologies while being prepared to respond quickly once technologies and markets are proven. The reactive innovation strategy is used by companies to take a wait-and-see approach and look for low-risk opportunities. Companies with passive innovation strategies wait until their customers demand a change in their services or products.
