6. Outline
1. Innovation – what it is and why does it
matters
2. Models of innovation
3. Innovation as a management process
7. Innovation – what is and why does it matters
new different from old stuff, old stuff used differently, replaces old stuff
creative destruction
stuff actual thing, service, technique, idea, business model
that adds value more user-friendly, more performance, cheaper,
simpler, knowledge, increase capabilities
to all stakeholders shareholders, customers, employees, partners,
community, environment
can be monetized profitable, high margin, scalable
is sustainable profit, people, planet, if you don't, the competition will
creates a competitive advantage market potential, blue ocean
until the advantage erodes pipeline substitution & alternatives erosion
of advantage
8. Innovation – what is and why does it matters
Innovation is…
“the process of turning opportunity into new ideas and
of putting these into widely used practice” (Tidd &
Bessant, 2009)
“the management of all the activities involved in the
process of idea generation, technology development,
manufacturing and marketing of a new (or improved)
product[service]” (Trott, 2008)
“not just the conception of a new idea, nor the invention
of a new device, nor the development of a new market.
The process is all these things acting in an integrated
fashion” (Myers & Marquis, 1969)
9. THINK
Is an unsuccessful new product an
innovation?
Is the successful introduction of an old
product in a new market an innovation?
Does all innovation involve new technology?
Xerox created the first computer with a
Graphic User Interface. Steve Jobs used it to
create the first Mac.
Who was the innovator?
10. Innovation – what is and why does it matters
Invention: The creation of novel services, products and
production techniques.
Innovation: The practical refinement and development of
an original invention into a usable technique or product;’
or, a process in which creativity is applied to every facet of
an organization’s value chain, from beginning to end, to
develop new and better ways of creating value for
customers.
11. Innovation – what is and why does it matters
Innovative companies are more…
…Adaptable
• Flexible strategy, structure, culture
…Competitive
• Better processes, services,
business models
13. Innovation – what is and why does it matters
Nikolai Kondratieff / Joseph Schumpeter
• “virtually all of the economic growth that has
occurred since the eighteenth century is
ultimately attributable to innovation”
• Schumpeter’s “Creative Destruction”
14. Types of Innovation
Incremental
What we already do,
but better
Sustaining
Rules of the game
remain the same
Radical
New to the world
Disruptive
Game Changer for
Market or Industry
Technoology
Market Status Quo
15. Types of Innovation
Incremental Innovation: An innovation in which a new
version of an existing product is created, by improving or
altering some of its existing attributes. Example: a
corporate jet, say, Gulfstream IV. A reconfigured improved
Gulfstream V may have better range, speed, payloadand
cabin room.
Standard Innovation: One additional attribute is added to
the product that did not exist before. Example: the
addition of a CD-ROM read-only drive to PCs.
Radical Innovation: Several significant new attributes are
created which did not before exist, thus creating,
essentially, a new product. Example: a handheld
computer (e.g., Palm Pilot).
16. Types of Innovation
Product / Service Innovation
Innovate in WHAT we do
Process Innovation
Innovate in HOW we do it
Paradigm / Business Model Innovation
Innovate in HOW we make money
Position Innovation
Innovate in marketing mix and strategy
WHERE, WHO, HOW MUCH
17. Types of Innovation
Product Innovation - new products or improvements on
products. The new Mini or the updated VX Beetle, new
models of mobile phones and so on.
Process Innovation - where some part of the process is
improved to bring benefit. Just in Time is a good example.
Paradigm Innovation - where major shifts in thinking
cause change. During the time of the expensive
mainframe, Bill Gates and others aimed to provide a
home computer for everyone.
Positioning Innovation - Lucozade used to be a medicinal
drink but the was repositioned as a sports drink.
19. Models of innovation

24. Innovation as a management process
Innovation management:
The process of creating and implementing a
business design surrounding a creative
idea, with the goal of transforming an
invention into an innovation, and
ultimately to achieving sustained
competitive advantage, leading to growth
and profit, in the marketplace.
