Stemming from the word agile, meaning to move quickly and easily, it is no surprise that such a methodology goes hand in hand with innovation. Yet this discernible link is too often overlooked and it is exactly this refusal to acknowledge the compatibility of innovation and agile processes that frequently leads to innovation failures.

Innovations are infinite, even within a finite market. However, not all innovations start with the same chance at a fully productive lifecycle. Innovations that survive are most often those that are supported by an organizational culture that plans innovation strategically and maintains a portfolio of ideas that function well in relation to each other.

Define your markets around the customer’s job-to-be-done. A market, which is the target of everything a company does, should not be defined around something so unstable that it is only valid until the next product iteration. This is why the Outcome-Driven Innovation (ODI) process defines a market around the customer’s “job-to-be-done.”
