Agenda • Why study innovation • Our Research • Terminologies • Key learnings from the research • The need for systems • Interpreting your results • Best practices • Q & A / Drinks
WHAT IS INNOVATION?
CREATIVITY is about new ideas
INNOVATION is the profitable
implementation of these ideas
Why it is important In Fortune 500 companies… New products account for 50% of revenues
And 40% of profits
companies value innovation
are classified as innovative by their
peers
of their customers would agree
of companies think they had a major innovation in the
last 6 months.
of ideas fail when brought to the market
Why Study Innovation (Scientifically) • Everyone seems to have an
opinion about Innovation and there is an enormous amount of (conflicting) “information”
• A need for facts instead of opinions
• A need for fact based theories to guide action
In Amazon there are 76.579 books on innovation !
How to be meaningfully unique with 17 thousands management consultants Belgium ? “Companies are tired of paying for advice, but are willing to pay for business results.” The Fast Bridge Solution • A focus on new business development • The right people. Senior people with different skills • The right methods. Fact based, using the best from around the world • Whenever possible, results based compensation
About us

Working together with …
Senior people with grey hair (no hair) with the tools, expertise and
experience to make innovation happen
Our Core Interest ..
Innovation is hard work, but startups are getting it right
more often
Start-ups are about
more successful with new business projects than established companies.
Some experts estimate that over
of success in innovation is based on systems.
5x 80%
What should large companies change in their
systems ?
Over 200 ! Articles/ Books Research has linked significantly higher levels of innovation and business performance to business philosophies, strategic alignment, business processes and organizational learning Let’s check it out …

Strategic Alignment
Theoretical Background
Our work so far…
• 42 one to one company interviews to validate questions and test questions found in over 200 academic articles
• A survey with 71 test companies testing initial questions and validating links to innovation performance.
• April 2015 we updated the full survey to better analyze disruptive and ongoing innovation success.
Now we are going to look facts, figures on innovation
success
3 definitions to start
1. Sustaining innovations 2. Breakthrough innovations 3. InnoPreneurship:
Bringing an Entrepreneurial Mindset to established companies
Sustaining Keep competitive
Breakthrough Create future
Setting up the research
Our research database : 3 types of variables
1. Dependent Variables (Innovation / Business performance)
2. Independent Variables (company characteristics)
3. Covariates (company size, country, etc.)

Some sample questions
OVERALL INNOVATION • Rate of growth • Rate of new product/service introductions • Success rate of product/service introductions • Level of product differentiation in terms of unique
selling points • New product cycle time (i.e. inception to rollout) • Ability to create new products/services with real
consumer value • Profitability of new product/service introductions • Percentage of revenues from new products
introduced in the last 2 years
We like to constantly challenge the way things are done.In my company, there is a sense of urgency regarding the importance of transformation driven by innovation.
Our innovation projects have helped our organization develop new capabilities that we did not have three years ago.
We have a burning desire to explore opportunities and to create new things.
We have committed leaders who are willing to be innovation champions.
In my company, change is regarded as an opportunity rather than a threat.
We encourage new ideas even if they seem completely out of our comfort zone and company's scope.
Our firm rarely introduces products that are radically different from existing products in the industry.
Our firm lags behind others in introducing products based on radically new technologies.
We have no difficulty introducing products that are radically different from the existing ones in the industry.

Action Step: Big or small, you need to work on
innovating like a successful start up… The way to do it is step by step
Why you need systems The Story of Innovation Engineering
“America’s #1 Idea Guru” – A&E Top 10 ! “America’s #1 New Product Idea Man” – Inc. Magazine !
In his words.. He sold spark plugs to Industry They worked for hundreds of companies, then the sparks worked less and less
They analyzed mountains of data…
• PEOPLE Data: innovation benchmarking data on over 100,000 managers.
• PROCESS Data: As of this writing we have measured over 6,000 teams during a day of brainstorming.
• IDEA Data: market research on over 26,000 innovations.
16 % ideas
84 % systems
They identified the share of success due to ideas and systems to execute ideas
They found inspiration in the work of Dr. Edwards Deming
They created Innovation Engineering “A system for Innovation Success”
The idea: to apply a process to innovation Demming calls is : Plan, Do, Study, Act (Lean Start-up: Build, Measure, Learn) What a company needs 1. Alignment 2. Attitudes 3. Skills 4. Learning Orientation
Sideline: Demming is famous for revolutionizing manufacturing . He said that is low-hanging fruit Where the real gains from system thinking would be in : Marketing , Sales, Strategy (sounds a lot like innovation .. )

5. Making change stick
• Train the trainer programs • Ongoing coaching and development • Mentoring programs
6. Ongoing inspiration
• Lots of content • Lots of diverse content and people • = A recipe for new ideas • If you’re a bank don’t ask banker to s
peak, ask artists • Best in class google talks
(inspired from P&G) • Search “google talks” in YouTube
The Talks at Google brings directors, actors/actresses, artists, authors, musicians, innovators, and speakers of all stripes
7. Systems
• Javelin • Innovation Engineering • Yambla KSFs: simple, action focused, learning based
8. Moments of truth Almost anything works faster with a deadline
• Inspiration days • Pitch events (with internal / external
judges) • Hackathons
Up and running in 82 cities. Moments of truth (they call them forcing moments) are the foundation. Graduates 80% success, 52% funding
9. Ecosystem development
If you want to move fast, it is usually not what you know, but who you know that makes the difference
• Meet and greet sessions with Entrepreneurs • Events with entrepreneurs pitching ideas for your
business challenges • Attendance at external events (eg Inacademy, The
Founder Institute)
10. Acceleration programs
21 Days to build a business Week 1: Problem-solution fit (there is problem) Week 2: Product-Market Fit (you have a solution) Week 3: Business Model Fit (you can do it profitably and scale)
An example of world class Objectives A weekly learning cycle every week for 10 weeks
10 ideas for new users/ uses of their productAt least 80 new ideas, with 60 killed, 10 merged and 10 in progress
Alignment Every Monday… what next nowBuild ideas Each Friday a brain-storming session (with new external people)CommunicateCheckSystems Identify death threats/ work on death threats
Kill all weak ideas where death threats not resolved in 2 weeksAn 10 minute standing meeting every morningWrite and document work done each week

Summary Best Practices
Remember, sometimes
“ The hurrier you go, the behinder you get…”
Smart Speed
A study by Economist intelligence with 312 companies split into 2 groups:
1. Go, go, go 2. Think, go , think, go (paused at strategic moments)
The companies with strategic pauses achieved: 40% higher sales, 52% higher profits
Conclusions…
There is lots you can do.. The important things is to do something and if possible do things step by step Two Key recommendations:
1. Start before you think you need to start.. It takes time to build cultural change (there are no miracle solutions !)
2. Don’t reinvent the wheel… copy best practices
