Innovation in secret is often just wandering around alone in the dark. "Stealth" innovation efforts are often just efforts to hide from the truth and to delay finding out that you were chasing what was for you all along a dead end. It's not because the idea or insight was bad, or the planned execution wouldn't have worked. It's often because that without interacting with others, your idea had no chance of finding product market fit, and your people never got the opportunity to succeed in small wins that the confidence in executing in ambiguity delivers. Don't innovate alone. This doesn't mean you have to go completely open source and give up your IP and the illusion you have a protective moat. It means engaging in the kinds of activities that refine an idea, build relationships to execute on it, and get real feedback from the marketplace on what you're doing. If this kind of innovation appeals to you, you might like this upcoming free workshop for intrapreneurs, platform oriented entrepreneurs, and innovation ecosystem builders. It's called "Innovation Ecosystems: 6 Engagement Approaches that Build Movements." In it I'll show how to use Low-Cost Events for Convening, Aligning with Other Innovation Movements, Co-Creating Industry Content, Co-Defining Success, Co-Developing Products, and Coalitions that Build Capacity.

How can organisations successfully balance between innovation and business growth in the dynamic world of medtech transformation? I came across an amazing HBR article (The Middle Path to Innovation) and learned about the "growth driver model", a framework that partners corporations with outside investors to identify and develop innovation opportunities, drawing on corporate resources and talent and externally recruited entrepreneurs. The medtech case study presented in the article offers insight into how the "growth driver model" leverages a firm’s capabilities to unlock new revenue streams by tapping into innovators’ creativity and agility. Happy reading! #hbr #medtech #innovation

Innovation: when a movement beats a product Elon didn't invent the electric car, Apple didn't invent the smartphone, and Sam doesn't own AI. Just because you have innovative ideas doesn't mean they need to come to life in a product, startup, or new business unit. Many ideas actually get stifled in those settings because they're bigger than any one person's ability to shepherd them to life. A movement generates products and businesses because it's bigger than any one implementation of it. This is because the idea is what's coming to life through the innovator, not the innovator creating something out of whole cloth themselves. It's naive to think that the person with the patent, the copyright, or the first mover advantage was smarter than everyone else. A great innovator is a master of the context, though - what's emerging, what it combines with well, who it best helps. They aren't the smartest person in the room, they're the best reader and orchestrator of the room in that moment. Do you want to be part of changing the world for the better? Learn 6 approaches for innovation leaders to turn ideas about the future into movements that have impact. This free workshop will highlight examples of the work that I've done for organizations from founder-only to large enterprises - you can orchestrate a movement whatever your domain, and whatever your budget. https://lnkd.in/ggb5UqMT

Innovation labs, also known as accelerators, business incubators, and R&D hubs, are on the rise. Despite their potential as safe havens for new ideas, research shows that most fail to deliver on their goals. Three key reasons behind their failure are lack of business alignment, absence of success metrics, and team imbalance. In this HBR article, Simone Bhan Ahuja provides valuable advice on how companies can avert these pitfalls in their innovation labs.  #Innovation #Strategy #Research
