The next big thing for corporate innovation management is the combination of human factors and digital capabilities. The companies that get this right win the innovation race. Here you get my slides on this topic from my keynote talk at CIO Leaders Summit in Singapore on May 17, 2017.

1. A key question for
executives and
corporate
innovation teams
today is:

2. How can robots,
machines and
artificial intelligence
help us do our jobs
better?

4. “The #1 goal for many executive teams
today is to win the digital battle.
I hope they play both sides of this; winning
the markets/customers now while also
building the corporate capabilities to really
win in the next 5 years.”
- Stefan Lindegaard

5. Some key observations
Top executives own innovation
– or lose their jobs.
R&D and innovation are different things.
Ecosystems and networks.

6. The human factor is the heart and soul of
corporate innovation efforts.
This leads to failures as well as successes.

7. Analog by nature
Humans are analog beings.
Knowledge, experience and relationships
reside inside the heads of people.

8. Emotional intelligence (EQ)
EQ can bring out great things, but it can also
lead to decisions being based on (wrong)
perceptions.

9. Close mindedness
People are often drawn to people they like
and who are like themselves. Just look at
top leadership teams.

10. The next big thing for corporate innovation
management is human factors plus digital
capabilities.

11. The battle zones
1. Decision intelligence
2. Pattern detection and recognition
3. Ecosystem management (people,
partners, digital platforms)
4. Technology mapping and understanding

19. Thought sparks on knowledge disruption

24. In a way, Facebook’s platform is shrinking. Just a few years ago,
almost every post a user made was text. But today, an
agglomeration of pictures, videos, text and live content define the
platform. Without advances in computer vision and machine
learning more broadly, Facebook would be handicapped by its
own new features.
“Content is getting more complex,” Mark Rabkin, Facebook’s VP
of engineering.

27. Exponential growth = merging
technologies = merging/new industries
