The document introduces Jobs-to-be-Done theory and Strategyn's Outcome-Driven Innovation process. It discusses how Strategyn helped Cordis Corporation increase its market share from 1% to 20% by understanding the job cardiologists needed to get done. This success led Strategyn to further develop its ODI process to help hundreds of companies discover customer needs and introduce successful new products and services. The document outlines key lessons learned from applying Jobs-to-be-Done theory and concludes that Strategyn's approach can improve a company's chances of success with new products five-fold.

Designing products against customer jobsMartin Jordan
How do you create successful products? By asking customers what they want? By matching market trends? Or rather by understanding the jobs that users try to get done? Believing it’s the latter, Hannes Jentsch and I gave a talk at Berlin ProductTank in July 2015 discussing how to design products against customer jobs.
In the talk we shared our experience from applying Jobs-to-be-Done tools in agile environments at Nokia’s HERE business for 2 years. We described JTBD as a framework, mind as well as set of tools and methods. Furthermore, we mapped and presented key JTBD tools against the lean product development process and discussed them in detail.

Get More Traction for Your Product Using Jobs-To-Be-Donepascallaliberte
The Jobs-To-Be-Done theory (by Clayton Christensen of Harvard Business School) says this: people don’t buy your product, they hire your product for a job.
Understand the job, understand why people switch to your product, and marketing your product will be much less of a guessing game.

In the quest for innovation, companies all over the world are embracing the need for customer insight to drive product development, with many corporates investing in innovation labs with user testing facilities, and embarking on large scale customer research.
These kinds of undertakings do not come cheap - so when you do choose to invest in customer research, how do you make sure you get the most out of your spend?
Here's Wilson Fletcher's view on getting the most out of user research and the best way of implementing it to consistently drive successful innovation.

CRO & Jobs To Be Done - Jon Hayes @ CRO ProsJon Hayes
It can be incredibly difficult to manage a website when the product you are trying to sell is something many consumers don’t understand well. Let alone trying to optimise that experience especially when it’s multi channel and there are various teams involved.
So how do you build meaningful experiments that will take your website to the next level? We hear the phrase customer centricity used all the time but how can we bring that ideal into the optimisation process to start driving the big improvements the organisation wants?
The Jobs To Be Done framework may just be the key to helping you focus on the changes that will really matter to your customers.
Jon Hayes has been in the digital space for a decade. He started by working with several agencies before shifting over to the financial services sector to build digital experiences their customers would finally enjoy.
Strategyn Founder and CEO, Tony Ulwick, provides insight into why most ideas are worth nothing and a jobs-to-be-done framework for overcoming this challenge. These insights will be useful for any organization who is trying to accelerate its growth through innovation.
The concept of jobs to be done provides a lens through which we can understand value creation. The term was made popular by business leader Clayton Christensen in The Innovator’s Solution, the follow-up to his landmark book The Innovator’s Dilemma.
It’s a straightforward principle: people “hire” products and services to get a job done.
For instance, you might hire a new suit to make you look good for a job interview. Or, you hire Facebook to stay in touch with friends on a daily basis. You could also hire a chocolate bar to reward yourself after work. These are all jobs to be done.
Although companies like Strategyn and The Rewired Group have been using the JTBD for many years, the framework has gotten a lot of attention recently. I’ve been fortunate to have worked with JTBD in various contexts in the past, and I included the topic in throughout my new book, Mapping Experiences.
My motto this year is "Evolve & Disrupt". I did a couple of keynotes on the matter recently, so I'm sharing this presentation to illustrate how I handle the "fuzzy front-end" of product development, aside from the Lean Startup stuff everybody talks about. Don't be fooled by the funny (and a bit irreverent) cartoons; Jobs To Be Done is a major breakthrough with a lot of practical applications. I have been working solidly on it for the last year and it is totally influencing how I see the world.

Going Beyond Innovation: How Companies Must Use "Market-Driven" Principles to...CompellingPM
Innovation. Productivity. Quality. Companies understand these as key principles for improving competitiveness and achieving sustainable and profitable growth. Governments also recognize the importance of investing in these principles to make their countries more competitive and to achieve economic growth. Most of the time, investments in innovation, productivity and quality are focused on the products and services and the processes to deliver them. This is a necessary and important investment, but this investment will only achieve a sustainable and desirable result if the central focus is on the market. The key to sustainable competitiveness and growth through innovation, productivity and quality is through a set of "market-driven" principles. Only then can a company (& country) truly succeed.

Leading Innovation and Change Best Practice Case Study Cl.docxcroysierkathey
Leading Innovation and Change: Best Practice Case Study
Client - a company synonymous with the term innovation. Since its inception, the company
founders have instilled a belief in unique product creation, including life altering product
innovations such as the light bulb envelope, TV tube, and optical waveguides. This concept of
innovation has been deemed one of the company's most essential quality programs, bridging
functional groups within the organization, renewing itself through continued time and iterations.
For the client, innovation not only challenges traditional ways to thinking, but has become a key
impetus to drive change. Innovation converts ideas into opportunities.
The client began its journey with the realization that the rate of new product development would
be insufficient to maintain company profitability in the future. In the late 1970's and early 1980's
there was a cycle of small pockets of promising technological advances, defensive moves, and
diminishing returns. Previously the company's innovation processes had been defined only within
the areas of research, product development, and engineering. The client began by analyzing past
innovations and the successes and failures associated with each, and benchmarking their own
best practices and lessons learned.
The client has defined innovative effectiveness as: requiring an understanding of overall
corporate and business strategies; developing organizational roadmaps based on customers, the
market, competitors, strengths and weaknesses, and resources; ability to evaluate, prioritize, and
select projects; and executing the selected project well. The key elements of innovation
intervention are: an innovation task force, composed of key innovators; the utilization of company
history as a resource for innovation; a focus on strengths and resources in a project of paramount
importance, referred to as "flexible critical mass;" and a two-and-a-half-day innovation conference
for 200 company leaders which focuses on reintroducing the innovation process.
Through the work conducted by the task force, not only were successes analyzed, but so were
areas in which the organization had fallen short over the years. By improving innovation by 10%
per year, costs could be cut in half, and doubling that rate would be equivocal to doubling the
RD&E spending level. This success would come down to the restoration of simple fundamentals:
- An environment and culture of energy and enthusiasm
- Entrepreneurial behavior at all levels
- The right people in the right places
- Sound business and technological strategies
- Improved processes for nurturing ideas
- Organizational mechanisms that could support the organization's drive for results.
Critical success factors also emerged from the client’s innovation conference, focusing on:
training programs at all levels within the company which would become a part of project reviews
and the deployment of empl ...
