HYPE Innovation
DECEMBER 4, 2015
Even the most innovative companies sometimes hit snags. Maybe there just weren't enough good ideas coming down the pipeline. Perhaps a few really promising ideas failed to pan out, disappointing the team and stifling their creative juices. How can the innovation manager get things back on track and keep forging ahead with innovation initiatives when things get rough?

Hmm. I bet the post title got your attention, but of course in this modern age of digital content we bloggers need headlines that pop through all of the noise and gain attention. It helps, of course, that I'm of the opinion that the headline is provocative, and has, as Kissenger once said, the added benefit of being true. Innovation, as practiced today in most corporations, is far too "easy" and commercialization is far too difficult.

The days of simply having ideas moving through a pipeline and coming out the other end as finished product and services seems part of our great past. I believe Innovation is becoming overwhelmed by all the changes we are applying into innovation activity and its management. I would say the IM system is under even greater strain from the shifts coming from the multiple applications of technology, new approaches to design and modelling as well as all the necessary engagement and touch points.

What is innovation? We can say it’s about R&D and S&T, but it’s also radical, disruptive, incremental and social innovation, as well as innovation competencies.

Manufacturing corporations across the U.S. are facing the urgent need to align with decarbonization goals while enhancing efficiency and productivity. Unfortunately, the lack of comprehensive energy data poses a significant challenge for manufacturing managers striving to meet their targets.

For me, fitness is everything. Having been woken up a few years ago to the fact that I might not be as fit as I thought I was, it figures centrally in life. It requires more than simply eating right and exercising…two things that many people struggle with. It demands a mental discipline that few people are equipped to handle alone. Fortunately, I had a nutritionist and cardiologist to assist me.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

Growth, as a strategy, is flawed. Draw a control volume around the planet and accelerate the growth engines: the natural conclusion – we run out of natural resources. Not if, when. Anything with a finite end condition is finite. That’s a rule. Because the world has finite resources, growth is finite. Economists say growth is the only way. And the analysts say you’ve got to grow faster than their expectations or they’ll penalize your stock price.

Scaling transformational innovations in large companies is challenging due to ‘Company Fit’ issues, which arise when the resources, processes, and priorities (RPPs) of the core business are not aligned with the needs of the new business.

When a brand strategy change is planned, what happens first? An earlier “Inside the Executive Suite” article from Armada Corporate Intelligence addressed this important brand strategy question about how changes are rolled out to the public.

Innovation without implementation is mere ideation. And buyer beware: this “mere” ideation can often be expensive, morale-killing, and potentially business-imploding. To prevent getting infinitely stuck in the ideation phase wasteland, remember that innovation typically doesn’t fail due to a lack of creativity but rather due to a lack a discipline.

Focusing time and resources on your competition limits businesses’ innovation potential for greater success, and prevents them from being leaders in their field. If a business is consumed by its rivalries, then its attention is not on creating new must-have products or services. Instead, it is focused on what its competition is doing, and how to either replicate or incrementally improve on those products, services and practices.
