“Innovation” is often discussed in terms of the “idea” as the product and the formation of that idea as somehow unique and ineffable …. There is a perception of serendipitous, Zen enlightenment related to ideation that is often accompanied by a thorough dismissal of “process,” as if they are mutually exclusive.

For many companies, the desire to be more innovative is driven by a strategic issue – flat-lined growth, competitive threats, industry upheaval, etc. Over the past decade, I’ve watched the vast majority of innovation programs, and corporate innovation leaders, quietly disappear within 2-3 years of inception (often much sooner).

But the imperative of any innovation program is in its ability to scale and realize its financial promise. It is critical in any development process that innovation ‘show stoppers’ are recognized and nurtured quickly. Why the ability to “scale up” promising bets is critical to transformative innovation.
