HOW TO BUILD YOUR STRATEGIC INNOVATION ENGINE

IDENTIFY

Find employees with the Working Geniuses® of Wonder, Invention, and Discernment.

It all begins with the simple yet powerful Working Genius® assessment by Patrick Lencioni and The Table Group.

You will quickly identify team members that get joy from Wonder, Invention, and Discernment. Sadly, many of these employees feel frustrated inside organizations focused on operational excellence. Offering the opportunity to participate on the Strategic Innovation Council gives them an outlet for their talents. This increases employee engagement while reducing the chance these valuable team members will leave.

IDEATE

Meet with a regular cadence to generate ideas.

Companies that use operating systems like EOS® are familiar with the concept of quarterly meetings. We recommend that you gather your Strategic Innovation Council quarterly to come up with new ideas.

Using a structured agenda, the council identifies trends in science and technology, the economy and industry, and client expectations to surface ideas that could be applied to the business.

Next they consider Outcomes that Ideal Clients want to achieve along with the Obstacles in the way.

Next they prioritize Opportunities based on the potential help customers, create new opportunities, build competitive advantage, or maximize profit.

Then, the council brainstorms Options to apply the latest trends to help Ideal Clients get the outcomes they want.

INVESTIGATE

Pilot, optimize, and package ideas using a proven process.

Many new ideas never get implemented.

New ideas need to be piloted, optimized, and packaged for implementation. This happens in between quarterly focus days.

A variety of pilot models allow the idea to be validated and tested with Ideal Clients. Based on what is learned, the ideas are optimized.

INTEGRATE

Handoff the best ideas to the operational team to get implemented.

The innovations that are ready to be implemented are packaged up and sent to the implementation team to be put into motion.
