Huge thanks to everyone who joined us this morning at Exchange: Cost of (not) Innovating. We had a brilliant and engaging conversation covering culture, mindset money and more. Here are some of our key takeaways from the conversation: - There are often competing forces at play - the need to grow businesses and. rapidly differentiate vs the need to deliver profits - We spoke about the balancing of incremental vs transformative innovation. Simon Garrard talked about a portfolio approach (the golden ratio - 70% should be geared towards incremental, 20% on adjacent and 10% on breakthrough/transformative innovation) - Company culture dictates the ability to challenge the boundaries, lean into the unknowns and have an innovative mindset. We hear about how important it is to create a safe and creative space by encouraging an openness to ‘failure’ … and looking at failure as a success if you’re learning from it - therefore the narrative around failure (as role-modelled by leadership) is so important. - Finally, we talked about how much is rooted in the language we use, and how this can sometimes be a barrier. We even touched on how even calling it ‘innovation’ can be off-putting and could create a barrier. What were your reflections?

🔺A global call for collaboration, innovation and social impact This speech was two years ago, I think the message is even more important now. I mentioned the possibility of wars before the conflict in Europe, the Trend towards automation and potential job disruption, and the critical need for global collaboration instead of division, calling for all type of stakeholders to assume responsibility and work to prevent problems and find solutions. I hope you find it useful. *we had to speed it up a bit because of time limitations World Innovation Alliance - Improve X https://lnkd.in/dCzir-Hj

Grateful for the enriching experience at the recent innovation event with my incredible colleagues from Europe. 🌍 💙 What struck me most was the collective humility we shared, even among the most seasoned consultants who openly admitted: "We don't have all the answers about the future." In a field where expertise is valued, acknowledging the unknown takes true wisdom. It's a refreshing reminder that innovation isn't about having a crystal ball but about constantly seeking, questioning, and adapting. 📝 We left the event with more questions than answers—open-ended puzzles that fuel our passion for innovation. How do we translate the transformative power of innovation to our customers? How can we make the future tangible for them? The journey to innovation is a continuous exploration, and I'm proud to be part of a team that not only embraces the uncertainties, but thrives on them. Together, we're not just consultants; we're curious minds on a mission to uncover the uncharted possibilities that lie ahead. 🚀💡 #InnovationJourney #CuriousMinds #ICG #partnerinchange
