What people are saying about Outcome-Driven Innovation:

  • Strategyn Quote Mark
    Jobs Theory and Outcome-Driven Innovation have proven to be highly valuable in the development of innovative pharmaceuticals. A focus on the ‘job’ brings clarity to the complex healthcare delivery process and reveals hidden opportunities to positively impact the patients’ pathway to health.

    Our business grew greater than 30%, and the ODI process played a significant role in that growth. Every one of our products had double-digit growth.

    Using Strategyn’s approach, we introduced 19 new angioplasty balloon products—all of which became number 1 or 2 in the market. Our market share grew from 2% to over 20%. In addition, we prioritized resources so we could be the first to market with the stent, an opportunity that became a $1 billion product in less than two years—the fastest growing medical device in history.
