This presentation discusses the Lead User Strategy that systematizes and formalizes the process of innovation. 3M is an ever innovating company and Lead User method helped it come up with many breakthrough innovations. The Lead User Methodology was proposed by Eric von Hippel. Many companies have used the method to their benefit. While innovation is always a much sought after virtue, there is no definitive and sure-shot way to continuous innovation. Lead User Method is one way to make systematic the process of innovation. it significantly increases the chances of success. Lead Users are often those who use an improvised arrangement (Indian 'Jugaad') as there are no commercial dedicated solutions available, using existing products or technologies to solve their purpose in a way that was perhaps not initially intended of the product/technology. So lead users can be potential source of new product ideas.

Structuring the "Fuzzy Front End of Innovation“ –
From Strategic Foresight to Implementable Technology and Product Innovations
Front End of Innovation EMEA, Feb. 4th, 2014 - Munich (FEI EMEA 2014)
Abstract:
In order to meet the increasing pressure to innovate driven by accelerated change in technologies and markets and by intensifying global competition, leading-edge companies need a systematic Strategic Foresight, by which emerging threats as well as future opportunities and potentials are anticipated at an early stage. Besides, an innovation management must be able to transform the detected needs and opportunities to innovate into implementable concepts for technology and product innovations, which includes the ability to handle the fuzzy input in the innovation process.
SPINNER, a worldwide leading company in passive radiofrequency technology, has developed a consistent proceeding, which bridges the gap from fuzzy future factors and strategic requirements to technology and product innovations. The presentation shows how SPINNER’s innovation management spots and evaluates future market demands as well as emerging enabling technologies, how innovation impulses are derived, and how innovation ideas are generated. It also addresses the involved methods and tools and explains how SPINNER’s Innovation Idea Evaluation System INES paves the way from fuzzy ideas to implementable concepts, prioritizing the most valuable ideas and allowing for dynamic steering under fluctuating conditions.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

Grote partijen zijn al een tijdje onderweg met retail media. Ondertussen worden in dit domein ook de kansen zichtbaar voor andere spelers in de markt. Maar met die kansen ontstaan ook vragen: Zelf retail media worden of erop adverteren? In welke fase van de funnel past het en hoe integreer je het in een mediaplan? Wat is nu precies het verschil met marketplaces en Programmatic ads? In dit half uur beslechten we de dilemma's en krijg je antwoorden op wanneer het voor jou tijd is om de volgende stap te zetten.

Marvin neemt je in deze presentatie mee in de voordelen van non-endemic advertising op retail media netwerken. Hij brengt ook de uitdagingen in beeld die de markt op dit moment heeft op het gebied van retail media voor niet-leveranciers.
Retail media wordt gezien als het nieuwe advertising-medium en ook mediabureaus richten massaal retail media-afdelingen op. Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren. Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Editor's Notes
The Medical Device Partnering Program (MDPP), based at Flinders University, has brought together groups of researchers to help the local company by independently validating the effectiveness of their powered bed mover. The MDPP project brought researchers from the University of South Australia’s Ergonomics Laboratory (Ergolab) to the Flinders Medical Centre, the major hospital serving Adelaide’s southern region. Over three weeks, the project team put the South Australian built StaminaLift bed mover through its paces on the wards to measure how much easier it is to move beds using this product than it is to push a bed manually. "The Medical Device Partnering Program project compared the physical workload of unassisted manual bed pushing with the StaminaLift,” said UniSA Senior Research Fellow and Ergolab Director, Dr Gunther Paul. “ Amongst other factors, muscle strain for each case was measured by staff from the University of South Australia’s ErgoLab. This information will be used by StaminaLift to validate their product’s efficacy.” The StaminaLift was devised and developed as a means of preventing workplace injury in healthcare settings. Its ability to lift, move and steer an occupied hospital bed prevents the risk of musculo-skeletal injuries incurred through handling. Local company StaminaLift, and inventor of ‘Remo Belt’, Mr Remo Di Sotto, are both working with MDPP Partner UniSA’s ErgoLab on separate MDPP research projects. When StaminaLift, found out that Mr Di Sotto needed access to a hospital bed for a small study, they made arrangements with a bed manufacturer to make a high-end hospital bed available. Not only did the ‘Remo Belt’ study benefit from gaining access to the bed, the inventor also obtained feedback from the bed manufacturer. “Access to the bed has been very beneficial for our study, and we are thankful to StaminaLift for this introduction”, said Mr Di Sotto. ‘ Remo Belt’ provides protection to areas of the hips and coccyx that are susceptible to serious pressure sores and ulceration. Mr. Di Sotto came up with the idea while working as an aged-care nurse. UniSA Senior Research Fellow and Ergolab Director, Dr Gunther Paul said that having access to the bed for both studies meant less logistical administration and it gave the Ergolab an opportunity to introduce their services to the bed manufacturer. StaminaLift gained access to the bed for their ongoing research work with UniSA and recognition for making the introduction between the bed manufacturer and UniSA – so in the end, all parties benefited from the introductions.
Moving from prototype to production can be a long and expensive exercise, particularly in the medical device industry. But with the right expertise on side, this process can be made easier. Managing Director of Flinders Partners, Mr Anthony Francis, said the high costs of tooling for manufacture can be a real barrier for small companies, such as Re-Time Pty Ltd. The Medical Device Partnering Program (MDPP), based at Flinders University, has helped Re-Time Pty Ltd overcome this barrier, with a low cost market entry product that utilises existing safety glasses and incorporates new electronics. Bringing together the electronics expertise of Flinders University researchers and staff with the capability of a local mechanical engineer, the MDPP has provided a low volume production option. “ Rather than having to invest significant money into tooling, the low volume production model will allow Re-Time Pty Ltd to introduce their glasses into the professional market and allow us to test consumer feedback and gain acceptance from sleep professionals”, said Mr Francis. “ It’s a strategy that would be hard to achieve without the MDPP, and will give Re-Time an ability to grow market acceptance ahead of a full release.” With help from the MDPP, Re-Time Pty Ltd intend to release a limited run of glasses in coming months. A full consumer version, currently in the design process by the University of South Australia, will be available next year. The glasses, with their inbuilt light emitting diodes (LEDs), use bright light therapy to assist in the treatment of insomnia, jet lag and Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) by helping to reset the body’s natural clock. Flinders University sleep experts Professor Leon Lack and Dr Helen Wright have invested over ten years of research and development into the glasses, with a number of clinical trials. Cost barriers have made the development a journey of stops and starts, but now the research team can see some real progress. MDPP Director Professor Karen Reynolds said that “while the MDPP can assist companies through any stage of the product development lifecycle, it is great to be involved in getting products to market”. Re-Time Pty Ltd is a spin-off company of Flinders Partners and Flinders University that aims to address the world market for the glasses. It has current deals pending with distributors in both Japan and Australia.
