1 – WHAT is INNOVATION
& what is the LINK with RISK
MANAGEMENT?

Hunter-Gatherers VS Modern Family Home & Lives
The Difference is Thousands of Years
of INNOVATIONS

INNOVATION
=
Doing something
NEW..

INNOVATION
=
Something that Creates
VALUE

INNOVATION
=
Examples?

Example of INNOVATIONS: Changes in Land
Transportation from Horses to Modern Vehicles
In the beginning 1880s 1910s 2000s
Horse drawn
vehicle
First Cars
Modern
Vehicles
Mass
Production
On foot
ESSENTIAL to Make the world SMALLER
On horse

Example of INNOVATIONS: The invention &
evolution of MONEY
In the beginning 8,000 BC 2000 BC 1700s 1950s 2000s
Precious
Metals
Barter Paper Money
Internet
Banking /
Mobile
Payment /
Cashless
Sea shells &
beans
Credit cards
Payment
ESSENTIAL to facilitate TRADE

INNOVATION
is NOT just
about products
or services..

INNOVATION
can happen in
any aspect of
your Business &
Operations

YOU can INNOVATE about any aspect of your
Business Model
Product/
Service
Features
Distribution
Channels
Customer
Relationship
Revenue
Model
Costs
Structure
Brand/
Package
Product/
Service
Ecosystem
Resources
Mix
Process
Structure &
System Partnerships
ORGANIZATION

INNOVATION can occur in any aspect of your
Business Model: EXAMPLES
PROFIT MODEL
Razor & Blades

Gilette
PROCESS
‘Lean’ Production

Toyota
MULTIPLE
Station-Free
Bike Sharing
System

INNOVATION
VS
RISK..
MANAGEMENT

INNOVATING is all about Taking RISK
Example 1: Discovery of America

INNOVATING is all about Taking RISK
Example 2: Launch of the Wii by Nintendo

RISK..
is the effect of
UNCERTAINTY on
OBJECTIVES
(ISO 31000:2009)

RISK-Taking can Lead to either Negative or
Positive results depending how it is MANAGED
& what happens in the environment

TAKING RISK is NECESSARY to answer
THREATS, NEEDS & achieve REWARDS
However Taking Risk WITHOUT proper
Risk Management ..
… is GAMBLING!

2 – WHY DO we NEED to
INNOVATE?

Is INNOVATION a NECESSITY for HUMAN SOCIETIES?
Can’t we be happy with what we
already have?

What Defines
SUCCESS in a
CAPITALIST
ECONOMIC
System?

ECONOMIC
GROWTH!

The only Constant in Life
is…
CHANGE

Organizations face a COMPLEX, UNCERTAIN &
always CHANGING environment climate: Key Drivers
Domestic

Political &
Regulatory

Resources &

Economic
Environment &
market Forces
Technological

GLOBALIZATION of Production & Markets &
COMPETITION – The GROWTH OBJECTIVE
Global Competition for Investments,
Talents, and others Resources, Markets,
Products and Services

28
SHORTENING technology/business Cycles
Product Time Length Cycle (TCL): how much time do you have to
‘milk the cow’ before another cycle start.

Population – GROWTH in emerging economies &
AGING in developed countries

Increased Pressures on Resources, human
communities & Environment

Increased PRESURES on Resources, human
communities & Environment
Business has also been viewed increasingly as a major cause of
Social, Environmental and Economic problems.

In a world where CHANGE is the
ONLY constant, …
we need to LEARN &
ADAPT to changes
continuously!

In short, We Need to
INNOVATE!

QUESTION:
Are Organizations 'Good' at Managing CHANGE
and the RISKS associated with it?
Many CEOs think that they are already EFFECTIVE at
managing the RISKS of their organizations .. in the best
interest of their Shareholders ( that they have a track record
of performance success to ‘prove’it!).
BUT is it really the case?
Let the data Speak!

36

Need for Better Risk Management?

WHY are
Organizations
NOT
BUILD TO LAST?

Part of the challenges have to do with HOW
organizations approach INNOVATIONS
WHAT is the
ISSUE?
38Marc Ronez - Innovation & Risk Management - Copyright © ARiMI 2017 38

It has to do with the TYPES of Innovations
Business
optimization
(incremental)
Product,
market,
method
innovation
Business model
innovation
You can convince BoD
of this because some
of it is familiar.
This terrifies BoD
because of uncertainty &
it cannibalise the current
business.

Short-Termism: What is the time horizon covered by
typical RISK Assessments?
Risk Management Survey 2015

Short Time Horizon = Short Term Focus
Horizon 1 Horizon 2 Horizon 3
Businesses typically have many
projects in this horizon, which
require limited resource
invementment and deliver quickly
Businesses support fewer H2
projects against stage gates and
killings off under performers
Seen as an expensive distraction
or pipe dream H3 usually
neglected

LEVELS of Management Controls vs Sustainability

Imperialism of
internal controls
Obsession
with numbers
Inability to think
out of the box
Lack of creativity &
innovation
Result of FOCUS on Protection & Sustaining
Innovations
The effect will often be deceiving and only provide pseudo-comfort
about risk.
Defensive Risk
Management
Which consists of
overloading in structures,
processes, systems and
technologies.

Illusion of Control – Getting fooled by Track Record
"It's only when the tide goes out that … you learn who's been
swimming naked."
Warren Buffett, Berkshire Hathaway

Example of Disruptive Innovations – Smartphone
Cameras vs Stand alone Digital Cameras
Cheaper, Simpler,
Smaller & More
convenient
•  No need to buy a
digital camera
•  Cheap: Eg built in
phones
•  Store many pictures
on memory
•  Can edit and share

•  Low picture quality
•  Low resolution
•  Low file size

4 – The DOWNSIDE of HUMAN
DRIVEN INNOVATIONS

As Humans GROW (need for more land, water, food,
energy and so on) all others must DECREASE

The Downside of Innovation Hurts Humans too!

There are more Disruptive Technologies in the
pipeline..
Source: Mc Kinsey Global Institute
While the benefits of New Technologies may
seem obvious to many..

It is also important to
consider the
NEGATIVE effects so
that they can be
managed properly.
Otherwise the
consequences could
be DISASTROUS for
us..

Effective Risk
Management is
necessary to manage
those threats & guide us
to a positive future
