15 ideas and frameworks on the art of storytelling
Connect and develop
1. Inside Procter & Gamble’s New Model for
Innovation
by Larry Husto
2.
3. OUTSOURCING
Outsourcing strategies typically just transfer
work to lower-cost providers
CONNECT AND DEVELOP
Connect and develop, by contrast, is about
finding good ideas and bringing them in to
enhance and capitalize on internal capabilities.
4. They collaborate with
organizations
Individuals around the world.
Searching for proven technologies.
Products that they can improve.
5. They seek ideas that had some degree of success already.
Crucial to know exactly what they were looking for, or where to play.
Consumer interest.
P&G is perhaps best known for its personal hygiene and household-
cleaning products—brands like Crest, Charmin, Pampers, Tide, and
Downy.

hygiene and cleaning, snacks and beverages, pet
nutrition, prescription Drug, fragrances,cosmetics
etc.
7. Products that reduce wrinkles, improve skin texture and
tone.
Products that clean effectively using cold water.
Create softer products with lower lint and higher wet
strength.
These needs lists are then developed into science problems
to be solved
8. New products or concepts that can help us take advantage
of existing brand equity.
By targeting adjacencies in oral care, P&G expanded the
Crest brand beyond toothpaste to include whitening strips,
power toothbrushes, and flosses.
9. Evaluate how technology acquisition moves in one area might affect products in
other categories.
These helped them to explore questions such as:
Which of our key technologies do we want to
strengthen?
Which technologies do we want to acquire to help us better compete with
rivals?
Of those that we already own, which do we want to license, sell, or develop
further?
Where they shouldn’t be looking
10. Global networks are the platform for the activities that,
together, constitute the connect and-develop strategy.
Networks do no good until you build and use them
effectively.
P&G taps closed proprietary networks and open networks
of individuals and organizations.
Using these networks, they look for ideas in government
and private labs, academic and other research
institutions, suppliers, retailers, competitors, individual
entrepreneurs etc.
11. Technology entrepreneurs

around the world.
Lead the development of company needs lists,
create adjacency maps and technology game
boards, and write the technology briefs that define
the problems company is trying to solve.
Create external connections
12. Technology entrepreneurs combine aggressive
mining of the scientific literature, patent
databases, and other data sources with physical
prospecting for ideas.
A technology entrepreneur while exploring a local
market in Japan, discovered what ultimately
became the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser.
Six connect-and-develop hubs, in China, India,
Japan, Western Europe, Latin America, and the
United States.
13. Suppliers
Top 15 suppliers have an estimated combined R&D
staff of 50,000.
P&G created a secure IT platform that would allow
them to share technology briefs with their
suppliers.
Why suppliers?
30% increase in innovation projects after creating
supplier networks.
14. NineSigma
Connects companies that have science and technology
problems with companies, universities, government
and private labs, and consultants that can develop
solutions.
Any solver can submit a nonconfidential proposal back

company.
If the company likes the proposal, NineSigma connects
the company and solver, and the project proceeds from
there.
15. InnoCentive
InnoCentive brokers solutions to more narrowly
defined scientific problems.
For example, company might have an industrial
chemical reaction that takes five steps to accomplish
and want to know if it can be done in three.
Problems solved by a graduate student in Spain, a
chemist in India, a freelance chemistry consultant in
the United States, and an agricultural chemist in
Italy.

18. Yet2.com
Through Yet2.com, P&G was able to license its low-
cost microneedle technology to a company
specializing in drug delivery.
19. Technology Entrepreneurs conduct initial screening
Logs product into online “eureka catalog”
What is it?
How does it meet our business needs?
Are its patents available?
What are its current sales?
Concurrently, Technology Entrepreneurs may actively promote the
product to specific managers
20. These managers will assess its alignment with the goals of
the business and subject it to a battery of practical
questions
If the item continues to look promising, it may be tested in
consumer panels and if response is positive, moved into
product development portfolio
Then over to external business development (EBD) group
for negotiating, licensing, collaboration, or other deal
structures
