Make Innovation Repeatable

As innovation champions, you know that episodic innovation is risky. You need ways to make innovation repeatable to enhance innovation productivity. Innovation processes can be improved to make them effective and efficient, which leads to repeatable innovation. Dr. Pletcher uses proven methods, found in the INNOVATION PLAYBOOK™, to guide teams to repeatable and dependable ideation, new product development, portfolio management and more.

Make Innovation Perform

As leaders, you understand that an insufficient or random flow of innovation spells danger for the future. What you need is a reliable, sustainable flow of innovation to fuel growth. Bottlenecks within the innovation system can constrict the required flow of innovation and may occur when there is a tension between powerful conflicting priorities within an organization. Using the INNOVATION BOTTLENECK™ approach, Dr. Pletcher can help you identify the bottlenecks, understand the reasons for the constricted flow, and “debottle” to enhance the innovation flow.

Dr. Pletcher talks about how to eliminate "bottlenecks" to make the flow of innovation a continual process rather than episodic.
