Organizational RQ is a measure of innovation effectiveness that assigns firms an "RQ score" analogous to an IQ score. It is derived from firms' production functions to quantify their ability to generate and exploit innovation. RQ has several advantages over traditional measures like R&D spending and patents - it is universal, uniform, and reliable. Firms can use their RQ to optimize R&D budgets and identify effective practices. Higher RQ is correlated with greater revenue growth, market value, and optimal R&D spending. The presenter argues RQ can help solve problems around setting R&D budgets and evaluating effectiveness, and help firms improve their innovation capabilities over time.

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).

4. The Problem: Firms and policymakers fly blind
4
No good measures of R&D effectiveness
– R&D spending is an input measure (51% of firms using)
– Patents neither universal or uniform
• Less than 50% of firms doing R&D patent; universality
• 10% of patents comprise 85% of economic value; uniformity
– Neither Patents nor R&D spending is reliable
• Anomaly in their relationship to market value
• Booz study each year says no correlation with firm growth
Implications
– Front-end: Firms use rules of thumb to choose R&D investment levels
– Back end: Can’t tell whether given practice helps or hurts capability

7. A real world illustration of both problems
Charles House, a former longtime H.P. engineer …now at Stanford
University, openly rejoiced when he heard that Mr. Hurd was leaving. “I think the
sexual harassment charge was a total red herring,” Mr. Hurd was systematically
destroying what had always made H.P. great. … The research and development
budget used to be 9 percent of revenue, … now it was closer to 2 percent.
Is Mr House right: Did Hurd destroy what made HP great?
With existing measures, we have no way of knowing!
– Whether R&D capability has deteriorated, or by how much
– Whether the correct investment is 9% or 2%
7
9. Organizational RQ extends the PF in two ways
Expand to include R&D:
Output = Capitala *Laborb * R&Dg * Spilloversd * Advertisinge
Make all the exponents firm-specific:
– Raw RQ is the exponent, g, on R&D
• “firm-specific output elasticity of R&D”
• % increase in output from 1% increase in R&D
– Reported RQ rescales g to the human IQ scale (m=100, s=15)
Interpretation:
– Analog to individual IQ:
• Those with higher IQ solve more problems per unit of input:
• time (individuals), money (firms)
– Need to generate AND exploit innovation

Uniform: An RQ of 100 (or any other number) means
the same thing across all firms regardless of currency

16. RQ Summary
The most intuitive measure you can construct for R&D effectiveness
It’s universal, uniform and reliable
Application
– Solves the up-front problem of setting R&D budgets:
• Immediate benefit: $1 trillion increased market cap just for top 20 firms!
• Medium term benefit: Better R&D allocation should increase RQprofits and
market value
– Solves back-end problem of knowing effectiveness:
• Medium term benefit: Keeping what’s effective (dropping what isn’t) should
increase RQprofits and market value
To learn more:
– Harvard Business Review article “The Trillion Dollar R&D Fix” hits online
and newsstands today: http://hbr.org/magazine
• Includes online tool to lookup firms’ RQ
