We start with a comprehensive assessment of your organization's innovation landscape. This evaluation forms the bedrock of our partnership. We identify key stakeholders and innovation champions, building a robust support network. Together, we set clear, measurable objectives that align with your strategic goals, providing concrete benchmarks for success.
Building on our assessment, we craft a tailored innovation strategy that fits your unique organizational context. We then develop a detailed implementation roadmap, outlining key milestones and actions. This phase also includes designing customized training and workshop materials, ensuring that your team is equipped with the right tools and knowledge.
In this pivotal phase, we put our plans into action. We deliver multi-level training programs, ensuring your team develops the necessary skills and mindset for innovation. Simultaneously, we launch pilot innovation projects, providing hands-on experience and quick wins. We also establish a robust innovation governance structure, creating a framework for sustained innovation efforts.
With a solid foundation in place, we focus on scaling your innovation initiatives company-wide. We roll out the refined innovation process across all relevant departments and teams. Continuous measurement and refinement are key in this phase, allowing us to optimize the approach based on real-world results. Finally, we help develop your internal innovation coaching capability, ensuring your organization can self-sustain its innovation efforts long after our engagement ends.
In What Customers Want, Tony Ulwick redefined how innovators think about their customers. His importance and satisfaction framework for a customer’s “jobs to be done” has influenced a generation of marketing and innovation professionals. Now with Jobs to be Done: Theory to Practice, we get the refined version, based on a decade of Tony’s learnings applying the framework.
The vast majority of innovation projects fail. With Ulwick’s process we finally learn what the best know already – innovation cannot be left to chance. It can and should be managed for successful outcomes.
I call him the Deming of Innovation because, more than anyone else, Tony has turned innovation into a science.
I’ve had the privilege to work with Tony and his team across two different organizations. Each time he has elevated our thinking and brought us a way to drive innovation that is radically different from traditional methods. It has been a great journey watching our team think and act with a focus on customer-centric outcomes.
