What is it?
The BlueCallom Innovation Framework is the result of years of research and practical work on developing disruptive innovations.
Neuroscience findings show how the brain collaborates with others to develop disruptive concepts. Only the bridge between the brain and AI allows us to manage innovation as a comprehensive process and make it successful.
The Framework explained
1) Innovation Principles
Key aspects and behaviors of innovation that are success critical independent of tools, software, methods or innovation types (product, business model, experience or organizational innovation). It represents the DNA of innovation and must be understood by every executive driving innovation in their organization.
2) Value Driver
There are three major drivers for corporations to genuinely innovate.
Exceptional Competitive Advantage – as breakthrough innovations are extremely hard to copy, companies with such an innovation are typically years ahead of the competition and can even widen the distance when continuously innovating.
Above Average Profitability – history has shown that innovative businesses can demand higher profitability and nothing is more profitable than highly innovative products.
Longest Lasting Leadership Position – with distancing a company from its competition, continuously innovating and a bigger war chest through above average profitability, the leadership position of such a company usually remains for decades.
Improvements on the other side, is an epic daily fight for relevancy and staying in the upper ranking of companies.
3) Innovation Strategy
Touching on an innovation challenge that requests a strategy for something that is not even discovered at the time the strategy should be created. The Innovation Meta Strategy provides guidance to resolve that oxymoron, an executive mandate is helping teams to understand the significance, scope and magnitude of innovation and a innovation specific strategy can be created thereafter.
4) Innovation Methodologies
While there are countless innovation methods out there, none has yet led to a breakthrough innovation. Without a strategy or scope definition, methods are meaningless tools. The Deep Innovation Design methods therefor mandates a strategy and scope and starts long before ideation and only finishes after the innovation was successful in its designated market.
5) Innovation Organization
A good strategy contains goals, resources, time and a structure of operation. Innovation organization need to grow and scale with its mandate. Hence it is wise to have a good concept for the organizational structure.
