2. A Sprint Workshop : Leading Accelerated Product Innovation
rethink to transform in digital age and Innovate
Modern organizations have brought about sensational progress for humanity in less than two centuries―the blinks of an eye in the overall timeline of our
species. None of the recent advances in human history would have been possible without organizations as vehicles for human collaboration. And yet,
many people sense that the current way we run organizations has been stretched to its limits. We are increasingly disillusioned by organizational life. This
workshop helps the leaders and organizations to invent a more powerful, more soulful, more meaningful way to innovate, by enabling to change our
belief.
Functional Innovation is an integrated approach to creative ideation and problem-solving which incorporates aspects from several well-known ideation
and problem-solving techniques. Functional Innovation developed out of a research study that involved analyzing 30,000+ recent innovations and
10,000+ highly cited patents in order to identify common patterns and develop useful heuristics.
In the 1960s, Swiss Physicist Fritz Zwicky developed the method of ‘Morphological Analysis’ for complex problems. Around the same time, Soviet
Scientist Genrich Altshuller formulated a method for Systematic Problem-solving after reviewing patent abstracts. Functional Innovation methodology
includes elements derived from these two approaches. It has also been influenced by the ‘Design Thinking' process introduced by Herbert Simon and
the ‘Creative Problem Solving’ method pioneered by Alex Osborn.
Functional Innovation Methodology is customized to the design of the product that will enable leaders to systematically generate ideas towards achieving
innovation objectives to bring a common language of Innovation in the organization for Accelerated Product Design and Development with real-time case
studies from ‘idea to invent ‘and insights from the industry experts.
This workshop will enable the think tank innovators and leaders how to deploy design space exploration easily with Multidisciplinary Design exploration, a
methodology that can link, accelerate and enable your current simulation processes to give you greater return on investment, and deliver you faster
design
rethinking future, beyond products and services
Offering products and services is no longer enough: successful companies will be the ones focused on delivering the most compelling experiences. In
fact, 56% of business leaders believe that customer experience is their top digital transformation priority. Customers expect and value increasingly
personalized interactions at all points of their journey, and digital technology is enabling companies to deliver personalization economically at scale.
Organizations should evaluate opportunities to cater to customer preferences for access-based models, before competitors or start-ups sweep in.
