The article describes the "chameleon innovator" model for innovation management. A chameleon innovator can successfully integrate both incremental and radical innovation, maintaining existing businesses while continuously reinventing through new products and markets.

A chameleon innovator solves both the equations of incremental and radical innovation through an integrated discovery-incubation-securement process using techniques like technology roadmaps, experimentation, and open innovation.

User-centered design (UCD) is an approach that supports the entire development process to create applications that are easy to use and provide added value to intended users. It involves user research, design, and testing activities. UCD helps define requirements accurately, allowing changes to be made earlier in the design process when they are cheaper to implement. This helps create a better product that acts as a business differentiator. When practiced within an agile framework, UCD involves gathering user requirements in phases, prioritizing features, developing in independent modules or stories, and rapidly testing concepts through multiple development cycles. This approach mitigates project risks and provides a clear vision of the product for developers.
