Building Digital Strategy Roadmap For Digital Transformation Complete DeckSlideTeam
Digital strategy roadmap is a blueprint for aligning business goals with your digital strategy. It shows how the company plans to embrace digital technologies to grow business and create better customer experience in the long term.

It starts with uncovering consumer insights and market insights. One then develops Digital Strategy keeping in mind the digital goals and key initiatives in the short and long term. The third step in this process is Digital Planning which involves setting realistic time frame for implementing digital initiatives. The final steps involve setting KPIs for measuring the success of digital strategy. Taking the healthcare sector as a case study, our researchers have outlined the digital landscape of the industry and showed key digital strategies a healthcare provider wishes to implement for digital transformation. https://bit.ly/3bL7TlW
1) The document discusses how open innovation and knowledge management can work together to drive innovation. It argues that most innovation comes from outside an organization and that true innovation requires accessing diverse sources of knowledge.
2) Key principles of open innovation discussed include making it a collaborative process where ideas are shared rather than protected. This allows organizations to leverage knowledge from a wide network rather than relying solely on internal R&D.
3) Knowledge management plays a role in open innovation by capturing both tacit and explicit knowledge, managing intellectual property, and facilitating knowledge sharing across organizational and sector boundaries. When combined, open innovation and knowledge management represent a new paradigm for innovation.

It also discusses different types of innovation, challenges high-tech companies face in maintaining innovation, and how new technologies are adopted over their product lifecycle.
General Management of High Tech CompaniesGuy Laliberté
Managing high technology companies involves planning, organizing, leading, motivating and controlling operations. It requires conceptual skills to see the big picture, human skills to work in teams, and technical skills related to the industry. Effective leadership provides a clear vision and direction while empowering others to achieve objectives. Business strategy should align product innovation with objectives. Rather than chasing multiple programs, focus efforts on key opportunities. Prioritizing customers and measuring performance on market share, profitability and other metrics helps guide success.
This document discusses open innovation and technology adoption. It defines innovation as improvements to products, processes or services in the market. Open innovation is when product development uses both internal and external partners. It can help accelerate development and reduce risks. As technology adoption speeds up, the window of opportunity to capture market share is smaller, requiring earlier synchronization of R&D and marketing efforts and potentially larger budgets to target lead users.
Implementing Innovation in Organizations: TrendsSpotting's Innovation Assessm...Taly Weiss
The document describes an innovation assessment methodology used by TrendsSpotting Research to help organizations implement innovation. The methodology involves two stages: 1) Exploratory research through interviews with senior executives to understand perceptions of innovation challenges. 2) An employee innovation survey to analyze perceptions of innovation implementation, identify opportunities for improvement, and form a basis for ongoing success measurement. The survey examines factors like leadership, culture, and performance across idea generation, selection, development and commercialization stages. TrendsSpotting uses this research to provide organizations with recommendations to improve innovation readiness.

This document discusses continuous technology versus breakthrough technology and provides examples of each. Continuous technology refers to incremental improvements made to existing infrastructures, knowledge, markets, and involves convergent thinking. Breakthrough technology involves the discovery of new knowledge and can reshape businesses and industries. Some examples provided include cars replacing horses and kerosene replacing lighting. The document argues that breakthrough technologies are occurring rapidly in many industries and nations, presenting both opportunities and threats that are difficult to predict. It recommends an "open source" approach to launching breakthrough energy technologies by making the core technology and plans widely available without patents or licensing to encourage global participation in improving the technology.
Kinepolis created a sustainable competitive advantage in the declining Belgian movie theater industry in the 1980s. While other theaters focused on competition, Kinepolis offered unprecedented value through larger screens, seating, and amenities at lower costs. This "value innovation" strategy expanded the market by 40% in Kinepolis' first year. Compaq stayed ahead of competitors in the server industry through successive value innovations like ProSignia and Proliant 1000, which offered more capabilities at lower prices. High-growth companies achieve success not by competing but by making competitors irrelevant through strategic value innovations that create new value curves for customers.
Innovation for Inclusive and Sustainable Growth : case for Frugal Innovation Anirudh Agrawal
This document discusses frugal innovation and addressing the needs of marginalized populations. It defines frugal innovation as designing products and services for extreme affordability and volume markets. Examples discussed include electric tricycles, village cooking stoves, off-grid electricity supply, water harvesting, and pay-per-use sanitation.

This document discusses red ocean traps that can prevent companies from pursuing market-creating strategies. The four main traps are: 1) Seeing customer-oriented approaches as market-creating when the focus should be on non-customers, 2) Treating market-creation as niche strategies when they are often broader, 3) Confusing technology innovation with market-creation when new markets are created through simplicity, and 4) Equating market-creation with low-cost strategies alone when new markets can be high-end. To avoid these traps, managers must surface and challenge the mental models that anchor them in existing competitive spaces rather than exploring new blue oceans.

Charting your company's future. A HBR article on marketing and strategy plann...Durgadatta Dash
The document summarizes an article about developing a visual strategy canvas to effectively communicate a company's strategic plans. It discusses a 4-step process for creating the canvas: 1) visual awakening to compare your strategy to competitors, 2) visual exploration by observing customer needs, 3) gathering feedback on alternative canvases, and 4) distributing the before-and-after canvases for easy comparison.

The canvas helps managers visualize the current strategy, potential changes, and which new projects to support.
This document discusses types of growth platforms and strategies for companies seeking new growth, including horizontal and vertical integration, as well as developing new products/services versus entirely new platforms. It provides examples of companies that created new growth platforms, such as a consumer goods manufacturer that established an independent unit. Challenges of new growth platforms include committing leadership, prioritizing strong teams over initial ideas, and systematically creating the platforms. Factors that can lead to failure include lack of delegation, waning commitment, overconfidence, and organizational decline marked by blame, avoidance, and passivity among executives.
This document provides an overview of breakthrough planning. It begins by defining a breakthrough as the elimination of a constraint preventing achievement of a goal. It then outlines the key components of breakthrough planning, which include developing a situation analysis, strategies to address obstacles and opportunities, targets to indicate if objectives are achieved, and subtargets for strategies. The document provides examples and guidance for creating each of these components to develop a breakthrough plan. It stresses the importance of specificity, measurability, timelines, and agreement among stakeholders. Finally, it discusses potential pitfalls to avoid like an inadequate situation analysis or setting unrealistic targets.
Discovering new points of differentiation pptVishal Thalla
This document discusses how examining a customer's entire experience with a product or service from awareness to disposal can help companies find new points of differentiation. It provides an 11-question framework to analyze each step in the "consumption chain" including selection, purchase, delivery, storage, use, and disposal. Applying questions about what, where, who, when and how at each link can uncover overlooked opportunities to better meet customer needs and differentiate from competitors. The goal is to develop a better understanding of the customer experience and identify new ways to improve and differentiate it.

1) Creativity requires expertise, motivation, and creative thinking skills. Innovation allows businesses to introduce new products and ideas to survive competition.
2) Managers sometimes kill creativity through fear of new ideas or anti-motivational practices. Empathic design, which observes customers to deeply understand needs, is an important source of innovation.
3) For managers to lead a creative culture, they should form small effective teams, communicate well, and support members' potential and inputs through fair work and rewards. United collective effort and a diversity of ideas and perspectives strengthen innovation.

Lecture 2 - Sources of technological changeUNU.MERIT
The document discusses Abbott Usher's four steps to the innovation process: 1) perception of a problem, 2) setting the stage by bringing together necessary elements, 3) the act of insight where the solution is found, and 4) critical revision. It then provides an example of the microprocessor's development, noting Intel perceived a need from Busicom, brought together prior experience with memory devices, and Ted Hoff had the insight for a general purpose computer architecture to meet the need less expensively. The document also outlines an innovation funnel process and discusses key questions addressed at each phase to reduce risk and increase investment. Finally, it briefly discusses sources of technological change like R&D activities and actors, learning by doing, and
This document discusses innovation challenges and knowledge transfer in the digital era. It provides examples of both incremental and radical innovations, as well as disruptive innovations that break market rules. Key factors for innovation are identified as culture, governance, strategy, and process. Culture requires an innovative DNA and qualities like quickness, openness, teamwork, focus, and positivity. Governance involves defining roles for leadership, R&D, and other functions. Strategy requires strategic alignment with the company and flexibility to spin out non-aligned projects. Process involves defining a clear innovation funnel with multiple steps of validation and testing from ideas to implementation. Open innovation and listening to consumer trends and scenarios are also emphasized for driving innovation.
This document provides guidance on writing a successful business plan, including key elements and questions to address. It discusses the business startup process and stages, components of a promising business idea, and classification of innovation. It outlines the roles of traditional service providers and venture capital companies. It emphasizes the importance of a strong management team and support network. Finally, it identifies characteristics of a good business plan and questions to answer in each section, such as executive summary, product/service, market analysis, financial projections, and risks.
Knowledge is a network that connects ideas and information. Innovation Factory is a first mile incubator located in AREA Science Park that provides technical, managerial, and financial support to entrepreneurs and startups. It evaluates ideas, supports the development of business plans, and helps establish new companies. Some examples of companies it has supported include AMPED, which develops forensic image processing software, and ModeFinance, which provides an innovative rating system for evaluating companies' financial strength.
This document provides an overview of the Stage-Gate idea-to-launch model for managing product innovation. It describes Stage-Gate as a proven approach that transforms organizations' best new ideas into winning new products. Companies that implement Stage-Gate successfully see higher success rates of 63-78% compared to 24% for poor performers. The document outlines five proven drivers of success for Stage-Gate processes: having a customer-driven focus, conducting strong upfront activities, implementing tough Go/No Go decision points, utilizing truly cross-functional teams, and ensuring top management involvement. It positions Stage-Gate as the industry standard for managing new product innovation excellence.
The document discusses the benefits of using a stage-gate process for new product development. It outlines that a well-defined stage-gate process provides structure, ensures cost objectives and timelines are established, and allows for cross-functional collaboration and oversight of projects. The stage-gate process divides new product development into stages with gate reviews between each stage to assess project scope, risks, and plans before committing further resources. This approach aims to speed development of high-quality, profitable products that meet customer needs.

Overview Session

2. Implementing an Innovation Process
Introduction
■ Innovation in High Technology Companies
■ Many companies focus on Product development and not product innovation
■ They put money in developing products before knowing if the product can become “an
innovation” and be launched with success on the market.
■ Many companies spend money on the development and forget the market
■ They spend a lot of money on designing the technology and forget about launching it.
Resources must be allocated to all aspect of a product and not only the technology.
■ Product Development and Management Association (PDMA)
■ In 2007 : 60 % of firms surveyed in the US are now using some form (partial
or extended) of a Stage-Gate Process for their product innovation. A direct
link has been observed between companies performing well and how far the
Stage-Gate process has been implemented.
■ Innovation must become part of the culture of companies to target growth
■ Product Innovation ≠ Technology Development
■ Rapidly evolving markets require a structured product innovation approach

3. Implementing an Innovation Process
Innovation in High-Tech Companies
■ Culture of Innovation
■ To be resilient and target growth, a high-tech company must “deeply integrate”
innovation in its culture.
■ A culture of innovation must be present at all levels of the company.
■ Innovation “as a mean of reaching company objectives” must be understood and part
of the strategic and operational plan of the company.
■ Innovation is more then “new technology = new product”. A product is more then only
technology (technology + commercial spin + price)
■ Innovation can be only “internal” and still impact results on the market (i.e. : implementing
new processes or equipment to reduce cost and thus price of a product on the market)
■ Key Factors
■ First step is to work on “integrating” innovation in the culture of a company. From the
executive to the middle management, all must obliged by it.
■ Key to innovation is the collaboration between marketing and engineering.
■ An invention badly launched on the market will never become an innovation.
■ You can have the best technology but without the adequate means to target the right
markets, you will not succeed.
■ Understanding the life cycle of a product is key in taking decisions for success.
■ More and more innovations are “completed with external means” such as partnership
and use of third party technologies.

Review
■ Gates are positioned at key decision points in the product innovation process
in order to make an assessment of the project.
■ Questions (to be answered are each gate)
■ Quality of execution : Was the previous stage executed with the required
quality level ?
■ Business Rationale : Is the project still attractive on an economic and
business perspective ?
■ Action plan : What is the action plan and the required resources to
perform the next stage ?
■ Decision (to be decide are each gate
■ At each gate the decision can be : Go, Kill, Hold or Recycle
■ Structure
■ Deliverables : What was delivered by the project team following the
previous stage.
■ Criteria : Metrics on which the project is judged for the
Go/Kill/Hold/Recycle decision and projects are prioritized.
■ Output : Result of the gate review (Go/Kill/Hold/Recycle); an action
plan for the next stage; a list of deliverable for the next
gate and a date for the review.
