How does corporate innovation succeed?
Sufficient autonomy
Too often, building new business needs the sign-off or sponsoring from the mothership down to the smallest investment decisions. Transformational innovation and experimentation requires autonomy and the right governance.
Strategic alignment
Many projects and initiatives are stopped because goals weren’t clearly defined or sufficiently backed up by the strategic agenda and key stakeholders. Initial strategic considerations that are aligned with the mothership are vital for success.
Right metrics to track success
Profitability is not the right metric for measuring the success of innovation in the short run (in the long run, it usually is though). Instead, venture capital metrics are needed to focus on a real problem to solve, a good team, an even better product, and early signs of traction.
Balance on the team
Staffing innovation departments with subject-matter-experts from the mothership is a common faux pas. Innovation requires cross-functional teams that can think along first principles.
