Launching an innovation management system does not have to be guesswork, and it is a lot easier than most organizations imagine it to be.

Innovation “fights” to attract resources, gain management attention or understand its difficulties in the time it takes, its potential risks and its need for a more ambitious and bold commitment of support. Often innovation activity frustrates senior management. We are achieving a faster adaptation and exploring mentality.
