I've written previously about having a bias for innovation in your culture , seeking and finding important and unmet needs or opportunities , and introducing discovery and exploration in your innovation process. That is the time that individuals and teams can commit to any specific innovation project.

Then, in Chapter Ten, Bensauo introduces the BTI seven step innovating process, built on work from INSEAD.

The second worst thing you can to is to start an innovation activity without understanding customer wants and needs, or what emerging trends or markets are about to unfold. If you have a good problem or opportunity definition and are reasonably confident of customer wants and needs, your ability to "go fast" is greatly enhanced.

Clearly, there are ways to improve the process, and new tools can help, but the right process improvements depend on the existing process and the specific project. And it’s the same for tools – the next tool depends on the existing toolbox and the new work required by the project. And again, minimize the words.

It's definitely time to pick up the pace and learn to operate at speed. When the speed is too slow There are a number of factors that limit innovation speed, most important among them a lack of experience or familiarity with tools, a need for perfection and elimination of risk, and long decision cycle times.

Remember that we are interested in what the people who are actually "doing" innovation think. There are plenty of surveys that report what CEOs or senior executives think, but not enough is heard from the people who are responsible for day to day innovation projects and activities. Here are a few of the findings so far.

And that’s why it’s almost impossible to develop a formal innovation process with a firm sequence of operations. Turns out, in reality the actual process looks more like a fur ball than a flow chart. If you create an innovation process that defines all the if-then statements, it’s too complicated to be useful.
