8 Great Innovation Practices
8 Great Innovation Practices

Needham, Massachusetts (PRWEB) September 17, 2018 -- Attaining maximum returns from R&D spending is the goal of just about every company.

This webinar focuses on eight processes, tools, and techniques that are known to increase innovation effectiveness, and the returns from innovation spending, in corporations. Some are strategic and soft, such as communication and messaging. Some are tactical, such as combining products and IP in investment thinking. Others are operational and day-to-day in nature.

Thought provoking and content rich. Plenty of take-aways. The content will be a good start to determining best practices for our organization. -- Ph.D., R&D Manager, Fortune 500 Manufacturing Company

Post this

By no means are these the only approaches and activities that will get companies closer to their true level of innovation entitlement. But, if deployed properly, each of these eight items will improve corporate innovation performance.

Four Decades of Declining Innovation Productivity

Every few years, waves of new initiatives spread across the globe. In the 1980s, structured product development and definition processes improved performance. In the 1990s, product concepting and portfolio management rounded-out the structures but degraded responsibility and accountability. In the 2000s, industry scaled-back on structure while pursuing open innovation and implementing six sigma in innovation functions. In the 2010s, agile and flexible initiatives further reduced structure and emphasized fluid and iterative development techniques.

Each successive wave, for the past four decades, has resulted in innovation productivity declines. And the number is not small, 65% as published multiple times by HBR since 2012. What then are responsible and conscientious professionals to do, who strive to keep current with the latest industry initiatives, to maximize innovation in their companies?

Best Practices

"Best Practices" is an over-claimed term. Did you know that it takes two to three million dollars to codify a best practice? We can't promise that each of the eight practices is truly a Best Practice, but they are in the "Great Practices" category.

Webinar Description

The webinar will open by making the case that innovation output levels have been declining steadily for forty years, a 65% decline over the period. We will look at changes to portfolio management practices and R&D spending allocations over the past 2-3 decades. Then we will turn the corner and look at the six-year stretch of spending going on right now. This will put a smile on your face. We'll then describe each of the eight practices, and why they qualify as Great Practices, which is the focus of the program. There will be two polls.

A great time for innovation is on the horizon for many industries, after having to hold the line on innovation risk for the past decade or more. Don't miss the window of opportunity.

Take-Aways

• A long-view of innovation performance decline and a renewed sense of its importance.
• Changes to portfolio management practices and where they appear to be right now.
• A look at the next 5-7 years of innovation spending and what to expect based on recent trends.
• 8 practices that boost corporate innovation in most industries.
